Dude you need to make a tutorial on how to right click.
I have been having problems with this, don't know wether it's the left or the right button -_-

Guys leaving comments. Lifehackers goal is to educate people who just don't have the skills. By watching their videos I've learnt so much that other people are probably experts on, however they don't complain. Don't kick up a shitstorm just because they are doing things that may be too simple for you, they've just finished filming season 2 of LifeHacker so that's going to be freakin' awesome :)

@nickbouwhuis If you didn't "knew" correct grammar, then why didn't you go to school?

The people that would learn anything from your tutorials probably don't know how to go to youtube.com, so stop making them...
