Preview tabs with Tab Scope (Firefox)



Firefox only: Tab Scope displays a thumbnail preview of any open tab just by mousing over it.
If this sounds familiar to the popular Tab Preview extension, that's because it is. However, Tab Scope's previews include navigation tools (back, forward, reload and stop) and support mouse-wheel scrolling. Also, you can click the magnifying-glass icon to toggle between small and large thumbnails, though you can also set custom sizes in the options menu.
This insanely useful extension has already earned a permanent home in my Firefox. Tab Scope is free, natch; it requires Firefox 1.5 or later.

opera has that, it's quite good

Kira uses Opera and if I jump on and use it, it's one of the things that really bugs me.

tbh i rarely notice it or make use of it - i actually see no point in it, if that sounds contradictory when i said "it's quite good" i was referring to opera not the preview thing :)

Out of the seven browser I use for testing except for Firefox I'd lean towards Flock, mainly for it's RSS toolbars and it's image uploading.
Opera's better than most PC browsers.

i never liked flock - don't like shiira either, oh are you on a pc? i like camino the best but it does funny things to my mini.

No Mac!

ok, forget the shiira bit then :) camino does rock though

I use camino if I need a fast lightweight browser also Omni-Web is really fast

[ianm]

i wouldn't have said camino was lightweight exactly - you've got to pay for omniweb haven't you?
