We all know that you can select text, and use the mouse to drag the selected text to the desktop (to make a clipping), from one document to another, or within a document. There is more to dragging and dropping:
- If you keep Dictionary in your dock, you can select a word and drag it onto the Dictionary icon for a definition.
- Drag any amount of selected text to the Mail icon, and Mail will pop open a new message with that text inserted.
- Select any text, drag it to Safari, and Safari will search Google for the selected text.
- Select any text, drag it to Stickies, and you'll have a new Sticky with the selected text.
- Select any text and drag it to Font Book, and it'll create a library with the selected font.
- If you drag selected text while holding the Option key, it will be copied where you drop it-- not moved.
