It's the little things...

I was incredibly happy when I got this prompt from Firefox this morning:

This Browser window has 4 tabs open. Do you want to close it and all its tabs?

I get frustrated when I accidentally close a window with multiple tabs instead of just a single tab. Now Firefox is safe for people as dumb as me!

I just discovered the hard way that there's still not saftey net for when I hit Cmd-Q instead of Cmd-W. Annoyed grunt!

But what about when you're viewing NSFW material and you need to quickly close that window? Best be quick on the draw, McGraw.

The fastest way to get rid of NSFW material is to hide it with command-H. That way, you don't loose your work ;-)

or if you want to hide it quickly but just don't have the heart to get rid of it, f11 my apple buddies.

Sweet. This takes care of my only big peeve with Firefox! I can't count the number of times I've closed the window, and been like "Nooooo!!!!!!!!"

better yet install the multizilla extension and be able to open up all those tabs next time you open up firefox.

what'll they think of next?
