Mac Tip Of The Day: Scrolling a web page on the powerbook trackpad?

I am totally amazed day by day by my new apple powerbook. It is an incredible machine. However, when browsing the net without an external mouse, it was really tedious to track to the up/down scroll arrows and click on them, everytime I wanted to scrolll on a site. However, thanks to my geekiness and curiosity, I found out that two finger scrolling is enabled on this incredible machine.

So all you need to do to scroll on a page using your browser or any application by the way,

you just have to place two fingers, any fingers you like, one hand, two hands, whatever, and scroll up or down. Wallah!!!! you got virtual two-finger scrolling. This is truly amazing!!!

I always opt for the traditional "spacebar" hit for a scroll down on a webpage, and "shift-spacebar" for a scroll up. But that's just me.
