• How to use Facebook with keyboard shortcuts

Facebook doesn't have a large collection of keyboard shortcuts and many of them require browser-specific modifiers. Still, if you spend a lot of time in Facebook, using the keyboard shortcuts can be time-savers. The news feed navigation shortcuts in particular, are convenient and easy to remember because they work the same in every Web browser (no modifier required).

• To scroll through your news feed, just use j to scroll down and k to scroll up.


• To comment on the selected story from your news feed, use c.


• To like or unlike a selected story, use l.

Keep in mind that when you select a story, the left border of the story's location will darken to let you know where you are.
