Ctrl-click or Command-click is the answer.

  Or, scroll wheel click.

  Yes, and the wheel on the mouse. Lately I've been using Hacker News Onepage and enjoying it: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/plldnnbdlbgbiknjebohmlggcbicghlj https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/plldnnbdlbgbiknj...

    Perhaps I'm an edge case. My MBP doesn't have a center click. :P
    • brk 16y ago
      No, but it has a right-click. Use it.

        Weak. Why should I have to? I believe opening a new window for offsite pages is standard practice for news aggregators.

      Let cmd-click be your friend :) EDIT: Sorry, didn't notice your response below.

      Yeah but you can get BetterTouchTool and use 3 finger click to open in new tab. It's awesome.
• imjoel 16y ago
  It is _an_ answer. It interrupts my experience when I forget to Command-click and close the tab on accident.

    In this case, I think it's _the_ answer. Your request goes against the grain of what most people would tend to prefer: links act as they were designed to, user modifies behavior by choice.
