Tab Mix Plus is my new favorite Firefox extension. If you want to really extend Firefox’s tabbed browsing capabilities, this is the extension for you. The extension includes features like duplicating tabs, controlling tab focus, tab clicking options, undo closed tabs and windows, and a full-featured session manager with crash recovery that can save and restore combinations of open tabs and windows. With the extension installed, right-clicking on a tab brings up an extensive menu of options: New Tab, Copy Tab URL, Reload Tab, Reload All Tabs, Undo Closed Tab, Closed Tabs List, Close Tab, Close Other Tabs, Protect Tab, Lock Tab, Bookmark This Tab, & Bookmark All Tabs. You can even go into the Tab Mix options (from Firefox’s Tools menu) and further customize this list by adding or removing items to be shown in this context menu. However, one of the best things about the Tab Mix Plus extension are the buttons that you can add to your browser toolbar. The “Open Tabs” button quickly brings up a list of all your open tabs, which is handy when you have a million tabs open. But it’s the “Display Closed Tabs” button that is the best. Although you can get to your “Recently Closed Tabs” list via Firefox’s History menu, having a button where you can access this information with one-click is a real timesaver.
