Firefox Productivity Tip

July 30th, 2007 | by useful | in Useful Tips |

Do you know the power of the middle mouse button? It opens and closes tabs and makes browsing the web so much more enjoyable. I was surprised yesterday when I was watching a friend of mine fumble around with his Firefox. For me, everyone should know how to use their mouse and its also something that is missing from internet explorer.

In summary, clicking on a link with the middle mouse button will open the link in a new tab and if you click on the tab with the middle mouse button it will close the tab which is less frustrating that aiming for the little red box. Is your mouse missing a middle button? Ctrl-left click also works.
