List of Facebook Shortcut Keys and Facebook Emoticons

Facebook is one of the most browsed website and with 850 Million active users, you can expect how popular this social Networking site is. There are many Facebook shortcut Keys that will help you to browse Fb quickly. Along with Facebook Keyboard shortcuts, I’m also sharing a useful list of Facebook emoticons which you can use to spice your Facebook status updates and chat.

Keyboard shortcuts help you to do things quickly. We have already shared Twitter keyboard shortcuts and now we are sharing a list of Facebook keyboard shortcuts and Facebook emoticons and smiley’s which will help you make most out of Facebook.

Facebook Shortcut Keys:

Go to search box alt + /
Send a new message alt + m
Homepage – alt + 1
Profile page alt + 2
Accept or deny friend request alt + 3
Go to messages page alt + 4

Go to privacy settings alt + 7
Go to the Facebook fan page alt + 8
See Terms and Conditions of Facebook alt + 9

Facebook Emoticons

This Facebook emoticons list is also helpful for those people who are not aware of the meaning of emoticons. I have added the title and image, so next time if you see emoticons on any IM or on Internet, you will understand the meaning. To use these Fb smileys, all you need to do is use the Key combination as I explained below.

    I just discovered that hitting the “J” key “jumps” you ahead to the next story or item in your timeline on your computer. Also, I discovered that hitting the “K” key “bacKs” you up to the previous story. Hopefully this is helpful.

    None of the keyboard shortcuts listed works in Internet Explorer (IE) on Facebook using my PC and Windows 7. For instance, pressing alt + / is supposed to take me to the search box but does nothing, alt + 1, alt + 2, alt + 3, and so on all do nothing in IE. Also, I saw Ankit posted that the keyboard shortcuts only work in Firefox if you press the Shift Key first. This works for most of the shortcuts in Firefox but Shift + Alt + / does nothing, it doesn’t take me to the search box; Shift + Alt + 7 does not take me to my privacy settings, it takes me to my activity log. What am I missing? I’m still left a little confused. Anyway thanks for the link to Facebook tips and tricks and Facebook emoticon list with keyboard combinations. At some point, when I get a chance I may look at all this further and even use it.
