If you're like me, you have a fairly limitted selection of special characters that you want to insert into your documents or messages on a regular basis.
There are several ways to do this, as outlined here:

I've taken to using alt-codes for the ones I use most frequently. Memorizing a few of these can be a big time-saver. Good list here:

Some of the ones I find most useful:
ALT-3 ♥
ALT- 14 ♫
ALT - 126 ~
ALT - 236 ∞
ALT - 241 ±
ALT - 242 ≥
ALT - 243 ≤
ALT - 0162 ¢ (Not in the linked page - look here: http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/accents/codealt.html)
ALT - 0169 © (Not in the linked page - look here: http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/accents/codealt.html)
ALT - 0174 ® (Not in the linked page - look here: http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/accents/codealt.html)
Those who write Spanish will find these useful:
¿ ALT-168
¡ ALT-173
There are also some accented letters you can check into, found here:
