Rudy's Tip --How to Share a Link

How to Share a Link, Part 2


Okay, above we showed how to copy and paste from the browser's address bar, but how can we share links that are embedded in text on a Web page. You know, the actual link that's under the hyperlinked text, not just the text itself. The long way would be to click that link (or open it in a new tab or window), then copy the URL from the address bar. But that's more work than necessary. To copy a hyperlink, all you need is our good friend the right mouse button. In Internet Explorer, simply right-click the link you want, and then choose Copy Shortcut. In Firefox, you right-click the link and then choose
Copy Link Location. It’s the same deal for Chrome, Opera, and Safari, though the "copy
link" wording might be slightly different. Then head to your e-mail, word processor, or wherever and press Ctrl-V to paste in the link. Presto: You get the URL itself, not the hyperlinked text.
