Default Browser Tip

I've been web browsing a helluva lot with my G1. Noticing some difficult areas and trying to come up with techniques to improve on them.

One thing I was having a bit of an issue with it there's no way to kinda "tab" up/down a lengthy page w/o opening the screen and doing that spacebar/shift-spacebar shortcut.

(wish we could assign the buttons to do that- that was sweet on the Sidekick)

So anyway, over time I kinda developed this touch-scroll technique that might come in handy for some

If I wanna move down a page fast, I do a high speed flick of the finger, as I'm sure you've done- it gets the page flying by pretty quick.

But often you'll go past where you want to be- here's the trick:

flick your finger, get the page scrolling real fast and then just TAP.

Its like INSTANT BRAKES
