Nice job. I find it particularly useful when I want to open up a bunch of links I'm interested in without the need to right click.

- sparky 17y agoCtrl+Click (open in new tab) and Shift+Click (open in new window) work well too, if I'm understanding you correctly. If not, my apologies :)
- acangiano 17y agoYou understood me correctly. However, ctrl+click still involves two input devices. :)
- dmnd 17y agoIf you have a scroll wheel on your mouse, middle-click opens a link in a new tab using only a single input device.
- messel 17y agoThe things you learn about peripherals here. I've been right click new tabbing for years.
- ximeng 17y agoYou can set up laptop touchpads to have a middle-click zone for one tap opening of new tabs too.
- statictype 17y agoYou can also middle-click on a tab to close it. Works in both Chrome and Firefox.
- Hexstream 17y agoSimultaneous left+right click counts as middle click for me on Ubuntu, I'm not sure if it's like that everywhere. So maybe you don't even need a scroll wheel.
- adam_albrecht 17y agoI'm just trying it out in Windows for the first time (on my work PC) and I realize that it works a little better on my Mac. On the mac version of Chrome, when you click on a link within the extension popup, it opens up a new tab in the background and leaves the popup open. But in the Windows version, the popup closes every time you click a link. That's annoying.... I'll look into it later.
