If you want to create more content can capture ideas when they come to you then creating shortcuts (in this case bookmarks) can help tremendously. There are a few things I do every day on my site that it made sense for me to make shortcuts to (in the form of bookmarks). Here are three things I do a lot with my site and how you can create bookmarks to save you time and create more content.
I add new posts.
Upload new images.
I create new Pretty Links, which allows you to create custom URLs.

You can see in the picture below where I’m dragging the highlighted option to my bookmarks bar. It creates a small globe as I drag it.
Once it’s in my bookmarks bar below my URL window I right click and choose “Edit”. Customize the name of the bookmark however you like.
When you put them together they’ll look like this. You could also put them in a folder in the bookmarks bar to save space.
REMINDER: If you’re not logged into your site when you open these bookmarks it will ask you to log in to your site.
Did it work for you? What shortcuts did you create?
