If you are using a web browser on Windows you can make the browser window take up the full screen by pressing the F11 key. This tip works with all major browsers including Internet Explorer, Firefox and Chrome. This may come in handy when you want more screen real estate dedicated to content and as few distractions as possible. To exit full screen mode simply press F11 again. Be aware that full screen mode will temporarily hide browser toolbars and tabs which will reappear when you exit full screen mode.
