Navigating through SharePoint Site using URL

I like to access lists, document libraries directly instead of visiting site or subsite and then clicking my way around. SharePoint has very logically structured URLs. Here are some of the most common:

To access:

Type url http://[URL]+

Lists

/lists/[List name]*

List New Item form

[list URL] + NewForm.aspx

List item details (display)

[list URL] + DispForm.aspx?ID=[item ID]

List item edit

[list URL] + EditForm.aspx?ID=[item ID]

Document Libraries

/[Document Library Name]*

Document library upload

[DocLib url] + /Forms/Upload.aspx

Document library item details

[DocLib url] + /Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=[item ID]

Document library item edit properties

[DocLib url] + /Forms/EditForm.aspx?ID=[item ID]

Special SharePoint pages

http://[URL]+/_layouts+

View all site content

viewlsts.aspx

Recycle Bin...

recyclebin.aspx

Site Collection's recycle bin

adminrecyclebin.aspx

Create

create.aspx

Site Settings

settings.aspx

New Subweb

newsbweb.aspx

* in cases of Lists and document libraries only spaces get preserved (and translated in %20 in url). Special characters are excluded (for example: list Special Čheck url would be http://[sute url]/lists/Special%20heck/

These things are quite obvious. What I'm trying to point out is if you're accessing certain lists/document libraries/settings often, it's not a bad idea to start paying attention to URLs.
