Extensions: Not just for lengthening your hair.
In the pursuit of tweaking firefox constantly until I find the most productive and least annoying way to tab, I think I may have gotten one step closer to my goal: Tab Mix Plus
It’s definitely not for the weak of heart. This manly extension is for folks who take their tabbed browsing seriously. The default settings are ultra crappy, but fear not: this puppy’s got all you want and more. (You’ll definitely want to uninstall quite a few other extensions if you switch to this. While a stable install, I got a few “settings-don’t-catch”) quirks while setting it up. The big happy? A setting that allows you to set your return tab to last viewed, so that when you view a popup-link, you don’t spend 15 seconds looking for the tab you launched from. This extension would probably take a bullet in your ass if you were in a combat situation.
Another dude you want on your team? Session Saver Nothing pleases me more in my internet addiction than the ability to close the browser, realize I pulled a stoopid, open it back up, and have it exactly the same way I left it. Not only does it fix human error, but on those rare often occassions when I’m sucking down the blue screen like it was Sharkleberry Fin (NSFW potentially due to ads, but I’m inclined to try the Trojan “Vibrating Ring” sometime. I digress.), Session Saver comes back A-Ok. It may be looking over my shoulder, but that’s only because it’s got my back. (Thanks, Colbert.)
I would try CoBrowse, but I have no friends. It looks ultra-sweet, and I just sold the guy who wrote it a few steaks. Seriously.
