Shortcut to Home Folder
Authored by: r3dlink13 on Jan 22, '11 10:08:29AM
The one I always use is command+n since it works whether of not you're on the desktop or have an active finder window already open. This will always result in a new window displaying the home folder instead of

command+up opening a new window from the desktop
or
going up a level in the current window

and

command+shift+h opening a new window from the desktop
or
opening the home folder inside the active finder window.

Granted, each shortcut has it's uses, but I'm a fan of consistency and thought I should point this out.
