How to speed up browsing / reduce bandwidth-usage

  • Disable images.
  • Disable scripts.

How to separate work and non-work browsing

  • It's embarrassing if you're using the same computer for work and non-work activities, and you have to share your screen to show something to your coworkers, and they see some search you did for butt cream or Pokemon or something.
  • To avoid this, create a separate Chrome "Person" (Click on the person image in the top-right and click "Manage people"), and move all of your work-related bookmarks in there, and don't have them in your "personal" Person account.  And then just have separate desktops for work and non-work.  I use a totally-different image for the work account's Person (I use the alien) so that it's easy for me to see which I'm account I'm using.
