So, I was working in Chrome the other day, and I noticed something when I moused over the reload button. Normally I just hit F5, but I happened to have my hand on the mouse at that time. When I did this, I noticed something I hadn't seen before. There was a tooltip telling me that the button would "Reload this page," but also, "hold to see more options." Well, of course, I pressed and held the mouse button over the Reload icon and was rewarded with this pop-up: Sweet! I often need to make sure I do a hard reload so I don't used cached files, and usually check and uncheck that setting in the Network tab of the Chrome Developer Tools. This seemed like a nice option to have.
