Who else uses these? Undomiel just showed me the light!

This is the one I installed for FF: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6366

The shift+right-click drag over links is going to save me so much time. Go to the home page, drag over the links, and they all open in tabs. Slick! I can't wait to play around with this more; it looks really useful.

I feel dumb for not knowing about this already, but I thought I'd share anyway icon_lol.gif

    Just install the add-on and play around with it. You just do things like hold the right mouse button and make a short line to the right to go forward, a short line to the left to go backwards, etc. There's a ton of them, and it's going to take me awhile to memorize them all. You can do things like change font size, make new windows, go up one directory in the website (i.e. from techexams.net/forums to techexams.net), etc.

    There's a lot to it, and a lot of the actions don't have gestures by default. You can completely customize it for what you do. It basically just saves you a trip to the tool bar, menus, shortcut keys, etc. My hand's usually on the mouse a lot when reading because of the scroll wheel, so it does make things go a bit quicker.
