makeuseof.com — I still use Firefox (even though all other browsers have tabs now) and I am still pretty excited at the ability to open links in new tabs. Sometimes I have dozens of them opened and this is when it stops being handy (and usable).

Don't you have 'tap-zones' on your laptop touchpad? I have mine set to be a middle-click when I tap the lower right corner of the touchpad...

Tab Scope > Tab Preview(also, did anyone else notice the article duplicated several of the shortcuts like Ctrl+W and Ctrl+F4?)

Double right-click is way faster because you don't have to mouse over the tab to do it.You double right-click on the actual page content and the tab closes.

Buried because Opera was the first browser to have tabs (which the author didn't state), and many of the great ideas of browsers today started in Opera. To name a few: mouse gestures, bookmark search, panels, speed dial, tabs, deleting private data, cookie management and many more. Firefox is very good but the addons make it too unstable at times and many addons should be part of FF's base.
