Good post though i particularly like start+e and start+r i didn't know of those but the rest I actively use.

It is a real time saver to get use to using the "Home", "End", "Page Up", "Page Down" keys to navigate your way through a document. These save from using the mouse to scroll around and insetting the cursor. Also it's probably obvious that you can use the arrow keys to move the cursor letter by letter, but you can hold CTRL + Left or Right to move it word by word. If you hold SHIFT + left or right, you will make a selection by letter. CTRL + SHIFT + Left or Right, will select whole words at a time.
