Vertical Tabs (Firefox Add-On) - Extend your browser's vertical reach

There are times in all of our lives when we need a bit more vertical reach. This also applies to our web browser. If you use Firefox, you're in luck with this cool add-on that does two things: It groups your open tabs, and moves them from the top of the window to the sidebar. There, now you can see everything! (Only works with Firefox 4, though.)

Tab Candy - Coming soon to a Firefox near you

cnet news - 7.23.10 by Josh Lowensohn

Mozilla's head of user experience for its Labs unit, Aza Raskin, on Friday unveiled a new project called "Tab Candy" that promises to dramatically change the way users manage open browser tabs.

Tab Candy is not an extension, but a new feature that Raskin and team plan to build into a future version of the Firefox browser. In essence, it creates a desktop-like workspace for users to separate and organize open tabs into groups. When opened, these groups act like their own instance of the browser. So, say you had grouped together 5 of 50 open tabs, then opened that group through Tab Candy; you'd only see those 5 in your browser, and not the other 45. You could then jump back and forth between the main grouping and other subgroups--all without having to keep open (or track of) various Firefox windows.

Multirow Bookmarks Toolbar - About time this came along!

The bookmarks toolbar is one of the sweetest inventions since the well-paying job. I use it compulsively. The only problem has been that it only has a single row, then a drop-down list at the end. Now this sweetener has emerged and I say, It's about time! (PS: The real thing looks a lot better than the screenshot, but I didn't want to post my own toolbar.)
