Facebook

Facebook shortcut keys are based on browser. Shortcuts for Facebook will vary from browser to browser.
In Firefox, you will need to add a Shift key before the key combinations given below, whereas in Internet Explorer, you need to hit Enter after the combination. Same goes for a Mac, except that for Firefox, you need to press Ctrl instead of Shift. Rest of the keys should be same.
