The Next Tab add-on for Firefox solves an issues I deal with everyday. We have all run into the situation where we are opening up a link and we have many tabs open already. Now to see that new link would you rather scroll sideways all the way to the end of the list of have it open up beside your current tab? Most people would say, “Hey Mitch, open that link up beside of course!”.
According to the developer, Next Tab is…
An add-on that improves the tabbed browsing. Naturally, we want all related tabs grouped together. So when you are a opening a new tab, you might want to open it right next to the current tab. This is a small, light weight extension that does the same. Usage: When you right click on a link, you will get an option to “open the link next to current tab” in the context menu. Click on it and the tab will be opened right next to the current tab.
So for those of use who spend our time browsing back and forth through multiple tabs, there is now an easier way to open the next link in a tab right next to your first one.
Thanks for posting this. My motivation behind developing this add-on is to provide the core feature missing in Firefox tab management without any extra baggage.
This is aimed at those users who want only this feature and doesn’t want any other tab customizations/features.
This article is missing information what if you do need far more customization/features.
Then you can use e.g. “Tab Mix Plus” add-on and have this and many other tab and not-so-tab related features. ;)
