    Re: Which Firefox Tab Extension?

    The reason for this poll is that I can't understand why TBP is one of the most popular extensions on the Mozilla Update site, yet it is patently inferior to Tab Mix.

    Just a few of Tab Mix's features
    • Duplicate Tab
    • Close Other Tabs
    • Close Left/Right Tabs
    • Drag/Drop Tabs
    • Colour tabs that have yet to be viewed
    • Undo Close Tab
    • Restore last session on browser load
    • Show progress meter


    And the list goes on...

    I never knew about it before (I guess it is fairly new), but I have installed it now.

    So far (about 1 hour) it seems great, thanks for letting us know about it

    I use Tab Mix Plus. I don't know what the differences are, but I know that my tab bar spans multiple rows if the first one gets too full.

    Oh yes, you are so right about that! God I was wondering why rob was talking about the Fantastic Four, it did not make any sense to me! Thank you agmorgan for explaining that to me, but I think its time for you to go and recompile your Linux Kernel!

    I use a great number of extensions but Adblock is by far the most important one.

    There is now an extension that automatically updates Filterset.G

    http://www.pierceive.com/ is the home page of the Filterset if you are unfamiliar with it.
