Develop your own hot keys/keyboard shortcuts instantly.

Hot keys are short cuts to perform a function on your computer. Instead making several key strokes on your computer keyboard to open a folder or save some data on your computer, you can press one or a combination of two or three keys at a time to perform the same tasks.

For example, if you want to save an email to read it again, you store it in Gmail server by creating a label first and then move the email into the folder.
By pressing 'v' on your keyboard, you can perform the above task without any hassles.

In this instance, 'v' is the hot key also popularly known as keyboard short cut.
