I've noticed something interesting about society and culture.

Kam vene re dicka interesante rreth shoqerise dhe kultures.

Cdo gje e rrezikshme kerkon nje licence,

Everything risky requires a license.

So, learning to drive, owning a gun, getting married.

si te ngarit e makines, te paturit nje arme, te martohesh.

There's a certain --

(Te qeshura)

(Laughter)

That's true in everything risky, except technology.

Kjo eshte e vlefshme per gjithcka te rrezikshme pervec teknologjise.

For some reason, there's no standard syllabus,

Per nje arsye a nje tjeter, nuk ekziston nje program mesimor,

there's no basic course.

nuk ka nje kurs baze.

They just sort of give you your computer and then kick you out of the nest.

Thjesht ju vendoset para kompjuteri

dhe me pas ju thone "fluturo vete tani"

You're supposed to learn this stuff -- how?

Si duhet te mesosh atehere?

Just by osmosis.

Vec nepermjet osmoses. Akush nuk ulet ndonjehere

Nobody ever sits down and tells you, "This is how it works."

dhe te thote, "Ja se si funksionon."

Ndaj, sot do t'ju them nja 10 gjera

So today I'm going to tell you ten things

qe githkush mendon se i di, por qe ne te vertete nuk i di kush.

that you thought everybody knew, but it turns out they don't.

First of all, on the web, if you want to scroll down,

Mire atehere, se pari, kur jeni ne web

dhe doni te levizni poshte, mos e beni kete gje me miun e kompjuterit.

don't pick up the mouse and use the scroll bar.

Kjo eshte nje humbje e tmerrshme kohe.

That's a terrible waste of time.

Bejeni vetem ne rast se ju paguajne me ore.

Do that only if you're paid by the hour.

Ne vend te saj, shtypni butonin e hapesires.

Instead, hit the space bar.

The space bar scrolls down one page.

Butoni i hapesires zbret nje faqe me poshte.

Hold down the Shift key to scroll back up again.

Mbajeni shtypur butonin "Shift" ne menyre qe te ngjiteni serish lart.

So, space bar to scroll down one page; works in every browser,

Pra, butoni i hapesires per te zbitur nje faqe me poshte.

Kjo gje funksionon ne cilin do kompjuter.

in every kind of computer.

Gjithashtu ne web, kur je duke plotesuar nje nga ato format me adresen tende,

Also on the web, when you're filling in one of these forms like your addresses,

I assume you know that you can hit the Tab key

besoj se e dini qe me nje trokitje ne butonin "Tab"

to jump from box to box to box.

mund te kaloni nga nje kuti te tjetra.

But what about the pop-up menu where you put in your state?

Po si i behet menuse ku vendoset shteti?

Don't open the pop-up menu.

Mos e hap ate menu. Do harxhosh mjaft kalori duke bere keshtu.

That's a terrible waste of calories.

Type the first letter of your state over and over and over.

Shtyp germen e pare te shtetit vazhdimisht.

So if you want Connecticut, go, C, C, C.

Pra, nese do Connecticut, atehere shtyp C, C, C, C...

If you want Texas, go T, T, and you jump right to that thing

Nese do Texas, shtyp T, T, dhe do ju kaloj

without even opening the pop-up menu.

pernjehere atje pa qene nevoja te hapesh menune.

Gjithashtu ne web, kur teksti eshte shume i vogel,

Also on the web, when the text is too small,

what you do is hold down the Control key and hit plus, plus, plus.

ajo qe duhet te besh, per ta zmadhuar, eshte te mbash shtypur butonin "Control" dhe te shtypesh plus, plus, plus.

You make the text larger with each tap.

Me cdo trokitje, teksti behet me i madh.

Works on every computer, every web browser,

Kjo gje funksionon ne cdo kompjuter,

ose minus, minus, minus per ta bere me te vogel.

or minus, minus, to get smaller again.

Nese perdor Mac, ndoshta te duhet te perdoresh Komande.

If you're on the Mac, it might be Command instead.

When you're typing on your Blackberry, Android, iPhone,

Nese je duke punuar ne Blackberry, Android, IPhone,

don't bother switching layouts to the punctuation layout

mos u lodh duke kaluar nga nje faqe te tjetra per shenjat e pikesimit

to hit the period and then a space,

pike pastaj hapesire dhe pastaj ta besh germe shtypi ate te rradhes.

then try to capitalize the next letter.

Just hit the space bar twice.

Thjesht, mjafton te trokasesh butonin e hapesires dy here.

The phone puts the period, the space, and the capital for you.

Telefoni, e vendos piken, hapesiren dhe e ben germen e madhe per ty.

Go space, space.

Shtyp hapesire, hapesire. Eshte fantastike.

It is totally amazing.

Also when it comes to cell phones, on all phones,

Gjithashtu, gjithnje ne lidhje me telefonat, e te gjitha llojeve,

if you want to redial somebody that you've dialed before,

Nese do ti biesh nje numri qe i ke rene me pare,

all you have to do is hit the call button,

ajo cka duhet te besh eshte te shtypesh butonin e telefonates,

and it puts the last phone number into the box for you,

dhe e vendos numrin e fundit te cilin ke telefonuar ne nje boks per ty,

and at that point you can hit call again to actually dial it.

ne ate moment mund te shtypesh butonin e telefonates serish dhe ja ku u lidhe.

No need to go to the recent calls list if you're trying to call somebody

Pra, nuk te duhet te shkosh ne listen e telefonatave te fundit,

dhe nese do te telefonosh dike,

just hit the call button again.

thjesht shtyp butonin e telefonates serish.

Something that drives me crazy:

Ja pershembull dicka qe me ngre nervat.

When I call you and leave a message on your voice mail,

Kur marr dike ne telefon dhe le nje mesazh ne sekretari,

degjoj te thuhet, "Lini nje mesazh,"

I hear you saying, "Leave a message,"

and then I get these 15 seconds of freaking instructions,

e ndjekur nga 15 sekonda udhezime te metjeshme,

like we haven't had answering machines for 45 years!

sikur te ish sekretaria nje shpikje e re me te cilen nuk jemi mesuar ende.

(Laughter)

(Te qeshura)

Nuk jam i inatosur.

I'm not bitter.

(Laughter)

So it turns out there's a keyboard shortcut

Por ka edhe nje rruge me te shkurter per te perdorur tastieren

that lets you jump directly to the beep like this.

qe te le te kalosh menjere ne "sinjal" si ketu.

Phone: At the tone, please...

Sekretaria Telefonike: Me te degjuar sinjalin, ju lutem-- BEEP.

(Beep)

David Pogue: Unfortunately, the carriers didn't adopt

David Pogue: Fatkeqesiht, transportuesit nuk perdoren

the same keystroke, so it's different by carrier,

te njejtin buton, i cili eshte i ndryshem nga transportues ne transportues,

so it devolves upon you to learn the keystroke

cka te mbetet ty pergjegjesia per ta pershtatur

for the person you're calling.

per personat qe merrni ne telefon.

Nuk kam thene kurre qe keto do te ishin perfekte.

I didn't say these were going to be perfect.

Mire, te gjithe mendojne se Google eshte dicka qe te lejon

So most of you think of Google

as something that lets you look up a web page,

te kerkosh ne web, por eshte edhe nje fjalor.

but it is also a dictionary.

Shtyp fjalen "percakto" dhe me pas fjalen qe doni te dini.

Type the word "define" and the word you want to know.

You don't even have to click anything.

Nuk keni pse shtypni asgje.

There's the definition as you type.

Dhe ja ku shfaqet percaktimi ndersa shtyp

It's also a complete FAA database.

Eshte gjithashtu nje baze e plote e te dhenave FAA.

Type the name of the airline and the flight.

Shtyp emrin e linjes ajrore dhe fluturimit.

It shows you where the flight is, the gate, the terminal,

Te tregon se kur e ke udhetimin, porten e hyrjes, terminalin,

how long until it lands.

sa kohe duhet per mberritjen. Nuk te duhet nje aplikim per kete.

You don't need an app.

Mund te sherbej dhe si nje mjet i mire per konvertim monetar.

It's also unit and currency conversion.

Again, you don't have to click one of the results.

Serish, nuk keni pse trokisni ne rezultate

Just type it into the box, and there's your answer.

Thjesht trokisni ne boks, dhe mund te merrni pergjigjen.

While we're talking about text --

Duke qene se po flasim per tekstin,

When you want to highlight --

kur duhet te nenvizosh--

ky eshte vec nje shembull. (Te qeshura)

this is just an example --

(Laughter)

When you want to highlight a word,

Kur do te nenvizosh nje fjale,

please don't waste your life dragging across it

te lutem, mos e co jeten dem duke kaluar mbi te

with the mouse like a newbie.

me miun e kompjuterit.

Double click the word.

Trokit dy here ne fjalen e perzgjedhur. Shiko 200. trokas 2 here.

Watch "200" -- I go double-click,

it neatly selects just that word.

Ne kete menyre, nenvizohet vec ajo fjale.

Also, don't delete what you've highlighted.

Gjithashtu, mos fshi ate c'ka ke nenvizuar.

You can just type over it.

Mund te shtypesh fjale te tjere mbi ate. Kjo mund te funksionoje per cdo program.

This is in every program.

Also, you can go double-click, drag,

Gjithashtu, mund te trokasesh dy here, ta terheqesh

to highlight in one-word increments as you drag.

dhe nderkohe nenvizohet cdo fjale pak nga pak.

Much more precise.

Shume me teper precize. Dhe sikunder heren e fundit, mos fshi gje.

Again, don't bother deleting.

Just type over it.

Thjesht shkruaj siper saj. (Te qeshura)

(Laughter)

Shutter lag is the time between your pressing the shutter button

Koha qe duhet nga momenti qe shtypim butonin

and the moment the camera actually snaps.

deri ne momentin qe aparati fotografik shkrep, quhet "shutter lag".

It's extremely frustrating on any camera under $1,000.

Kjo eshte mjaft e merzitshme per cdo aparat fotografik qe kushton me pak se 1000 dollare.

(Camera click)

(Shtyp aparatin fotografik)

(Laughter)

(Te qeshura)

Kjo ndodh sepse aparati fotografik kerkon kohen e mjaftueshme

So, that's because the camera needs time to calculate the focus and exposure,

te llogarise fokusin dhe ekspozimin,

but if you pre-focus with a half-press,

por nese je gati i fokusuar me nje gjysem-klikim,

leave your finger down --

mbaje gishtin ulur dhe ne kete menyre nuk ke humbje kohe!

no shutter lag!

You get it every time.

Kjo ndodh cdo here.

I've just turned your $50 camera into a $1,000 camera with that trick.

Sapo e ktheva aparatin tend fotografik prej 50 $

ne nje aparat 1000 $ vetem me ate sekret te vogel.

And finally, it often happens that you're giving a talk,

Nderkohe, ndodh shpesh qe ndersa je duke bere nje prezantim,

and for some reason, the audience is looking at the slide

dhe audienca eshte e fokusuar ne ate cka ka ne ekran

instead of at you!

dhe jo tek ty (Te qeshura)

(Laughter)

So when that happens -- this works in Keynote, PowerPoint,

Pra, kur nje gje e tille ndosh, kjo funksionon ne Keynote, PowerPoint,

it works in every program -- all you do is hit the letter B key,

punon ne cdo program, ajo cka duhet te besh eshte te shtypesh germen B ne tastjere,

B for blackout, to black out the slide, make everybody look at you,

B per erresim, ne menyre qe informacioni ne ekran te erresohet

dhe vemendja te kthehet serish nga ty

and then when you're ready to go on, you hit B again,

dhe nese je duke ecur fuqishem keshtu, atehere

and if you're really on a roll, you can hit the W key for "whiteout,"

mund te shtypesh butonin W, ne menyre qe te zbardhet prezantimi

and you white out the slide,

dhe me nje tjeter klikim te W ajo c'zbardhet.

and then you can hit W again to un-blank it.

Kaq e thjeshte eshte.

So I know I went super fast.

E di, qe i thashe te gjitha me nje fryme. Nese nuk kuptuat ndonje gje,

If you missed anything, I'll be happy to send you the list of these tips.

me thoni, dhe do ju nis listen e 10 sekreteve permendur me larte.

In the meantime, congratulations.

Nderkohe, urime!

You all get your California Technology License.

Te gjithe merrni licencen e teknologjise se Kalifornise.

Have a great day.

Kalofshi mire.

(Duartrokitje)

(Applause)
