From the Department of Nifty: If you have multiple tabs opened in Firefox and hover the mouse over one of the tabs, the mouse scroll wheel will allow you to scroll through the open tabs. This is cool. I have a folder bookmarked with all my daily blog reads, and I use the “Open all in tabs” feature to open all my favorites once or twice each day. Being able to scroll through them using the mouse scroll wheel is way, way cooler than using the left and right arrows on either end of the tab row.

FireFox
A Better Browser
Well I finally did it. I’ve been playing with it for a few weeks and I decided to make the switch. I’ve instructed my laptop to use FireFox as my default browser. It is just a damn hell ass better browser than Internet Explorer. I like the tabs. (No, I love the tabs.) I like the RSS stuff. I like being able to do so many geeky things. I like the fact that it never seems to crash or hang. I like pretty much everything about FireFox. In fact my only real complaint is that I had to open the help files to find the keyboard shortcut to switch the active tab. (It’s CTRL-TAB, by the way. Why is that so hard to find?) I humbly apologize to all those people I thought were dorks for using FF all this time. You were right. I was wrong. Long live FireFox.
