Firefox extension: Last Tab
My new favorite Firefox extension is Last Tab. It modifies Ctrl-Tab to switch to recently selected tabs, rather than always go from left-to-right and it  focuses the most recently selected tab when a tab is closed. Sweet!

Maxthon has a better tabbing setup than FireFox. You can reorder tabs, and double-clicking closes a tab.

I agree with Jeffrey. Avant is another browser that has FAR more tab features than Firefox, even with all the available extensions. In fact, the older versions of Mozilla had better tabbed browsing extensions that Firefox does now! Why have we gone backwards??

I think the design goal behind firefox is simplicity for mom and pop users rather than full configurablity for power users. The idea is to be "as easy as IE"

Thanks for that, seems I wasn't the only one pissed off with the default behaviour!

I tried Maxthon and it just never clicked with me. I guess that's why there's choice in the marketplace! :)
