How To Quickly Email a Link to a Web Page

It can be annoying to get an email for a web page—27 pages of junk and missing images, etc—when all you want is the link to the page. Just try an Amazon page—what a mess.

Two ways to send a link to a web page.

Copy/Paste

Works everywhere: copy the URL from the web browser and paste it into a mail message. Works great, but a time-waster.

One step

In Apple Safari, cmd-shift-I and bingo. Or for those with time on their hands, holddown the Option key and choose File => Share => Email Link to This Page.

Same shortcut in Google Chrome or File => Share => Email Link.

In Firefox, File => Email Link.
