Spent several hours running around town doing tedious errands the other day in neighborhoods I don't know well, so I was thrilled to finally tap the "Navigate To-> Home" button on my GPS when I was done. It got me wondering: what are the software buttons you just can't help but love to tap, click, or press? An informal poll on Twitter unearthed a bunch of good ones: your email's Out of Office "Enable" button, "End Call," "Mark All as Read," the power button, "Install Updates," The "OK" button next to "Deposit $xxxx?" ATM prompt, and "Done" on your to-do list. What else? The full list of replies I got are inside. 78 Twitter replies Public Twitter replies to @ginatrapani's tweet : mezzoblue : probably the '1P' button in Safari to have 1Password auto-fill login forms / credit cards / etc. sippey : oh, that's easy. "End Call." carnellm : Did the old Oscar the Grouch trash can emptying on the classic Macs count as a software button? I loved that. singlepayer : delete, remove, off, and block mediamgl : iPhone sleep button to power on the screen -- my wallpaper is always a photo of my boys &/or wife. rsisk101 : My favorite button to push is the Submit button on my latest @thinkgeek order ;> andrevr : The YES button on any "Are you sure you want to uninstall this Microsoft software product?" dialog box. andrevr : Mark all as read in Google Reader
