MORE EASY TO USE FACEBOOK ACCOUNT BY SHORTCUT KEYBOARD
As I have noticed we don’t use shortcut keys while using facebook, but they have some shortcut keys for navigating around the site using the keyboard, so I decided to put together a list for everybody.
Note: for each of these shortcut keys, if you’re using Firefox, you’ll need to use Shift+Alt instead of just Alt, and for Internet Explorer you’ll need to hit the Enter key after the shortcut to trigger it.
If you’re using a Mac, you’ll need to use Ctrl+Opt instead of Alt.

1. New Message: (Alt + M)
This shortcut key doesn’t seem to work in Internet Explorer at all, but if you’re using Google Chrome or Firefox, it should work fine, though Firefox will use Shift+Alt+M instead.
2. Search Box: (Alt + ?)
This shortcut key is the same in Chrome and Internet Explorer, but is Shift+Alt+? in Firefox—it’s really a very useful shortcut, since the search box gets you access to all your friends easily.
3. Home Page: (Alt + 1)
This shortcut takes you to your home page—if you’re in Firefox it’s Shift+Alt+1 and IE is Alt+1 and then Enter.
4. Your Profile:( Alt + 2)
This shortcut takes you to your profile page—if you’re in Firefox it’s Shift+Alt+2 and IE is Alt+2 and then Enter.
5. Friend Requests:( Alt + 3)
This shortcut is somewhat useless unless you’re the most popular person in the world, as it opens up the friend requests page. If you’re in Firefox it’s Shift+Alt+3 and IE is Alt+3 and then Enter.
6. Messages Alt + 4)
This shortcut opens up the Messages dialog. If you’re in Firefox it’s Shift+Alt+4 and IE is Alt+4 and then Enter.
7. Notifications: (Alt + 5)
This shortcut opens up the Notifications dialog. If you’re in Firefox it’s Shift+Alt+5 and IE is Alt+5 and then Enter.
There’s a couple of other shortcut keys, for Alt+6 through 0 on the keyboard, which take you to the settings, privacy, about, terms, and help pages. Some other navigation keys for different browser are below listed.
