Emmet
http://emmet.io/
Formerly known as Zen Coding, Emmet is a syntax (and plugin for many editors) to make working with HTML and CSS more streamlined. As Emmet it is available for Sublime Text and many other editors that you may be using. Visual Studio support is available via Web Essentials 2012 plugin. If you don’t have this, you should get it.
