It comes to something when you hear breaking news by reading the language log :)

javascript:if(document.referrer) document.location = document.referrer;

This one is cool. Obvious, but I never thought of it. It takes you back to a page the current page was linked from (ie. its referrer), so when you've forgotten why you opened a tab (say, because the link was phrased as a witty comment that only makes sense when you've already read the page), you can just go and see.

[1] Does it bug anyone else that in MS Office, "redo (of an undo)" is also "repeat last action"? It may be just what I'm used to, they don't feel really synonymous to me, though I can see how they could be viewed like that.

I'd prefer it if they were different shortcuts, so I can redo a bunch of actions without overshooting and splatting a whole bunch more stuff by accident. But then if you have difficulty remembering shortcuts, it might be easier to remember/discover the other one if it's linked to the first one you know?
