https://update.mozilla.org/extensions/m ... =749>Focus Last Selected Tab</a>: By default, when you close a tab, it just cycles you to the next tab in the list. This extension instead cycles you to the last tab you had selected. Much more intuitive, works more like how windows in a desktop environment do.
<a href=
http://superdragandgo.mozdev.org/instal ... html>Super Drag And Go</a>: I consider this the best extension yet. Clicking on and dragging a link to empty space opens the URL up in a new tab. It make navigation wonderful.</div>
The Mouse Gestures one is nice. I use it a lot cuz I have a simple mouse with 2 buttons and scroll wheel...

<div style='font: bold 9pt ; text-align: left; '>You basically push the right button then move the mouse in a certain way to do certain things like moving left for going back, right for going forward, move down to open a new window, etc.

<div style='font: 10pt verdana; text-align: left; padding: 0% 10% 0% 10%; '>Didn't know that - but on Linux, it tries to open whatever's in the clipboard in a new tab. It's easier if I have the same interface at home and at the office. (Half the reason I'm using Firefox in the first place.)</div>
