Kevin’s Keyboard Shortkuts: create new Google Drive files

I stumbled across these url shortcuts a while ago to create some of the different Google Drive file types:

1. doc.new
2. slides.new
3. form.new or forms.new

By typing any of these strings into the search bar and hitting enter, a Doc, Slides, or Form is automatically created and opened in your browser tab, without having to navigate to the buttons on the Google Drive homepage. Given the particularly relatively load times for Google Drive, this might just save you a month or two off of your life. But today, we start with that one percent.
