Reading Salesforce URLs
Sometimes a URL isn’t just a URL. Let’s break down a #Salesforce address and think about what it can tell us and how it can be useful.

@Michael Kolodner Here's a little Chrome extension I wrote years ago that pastes a SF ID from the clipboard into the URL by hitting Ctl-shift-Y to take you to that IDs page. I found it useful when working on data migrations where I would have big spreadsheets of SF record field values I wanted to visit - I could just copy an SF ID from the spreadsheet, then from any SF page I happened to currently be viewing in Chrome, Ctl-Sihft-Y would jump me to my chosen page. Just saves a teeny bit of time compared to manually selecting the appropriate part of the URL in the address bar, but after you have to do it 100 times, it helps:
