This happy little website serves as a testing ground and play area for me. While the content is always 'real', the design and functionality vary from time to time as I often play with ideas here. I do so on a 'live' site so as to encourage myself to make the changes quickly.
Recently I was shown a little time saving technique for opening links in Firefox in a new tab. Rather than right click and select ‘Open Link in New Tab’, you can simply click on the wheel on the mouse. Voila! The links opens in a new tab. Brilliant stuff that!
Thanks to my chickenmonkeydog co-editor for the tip.

Oh I used to do that until my mouse wheel broke. Since then I prefer ctrl+click. My left hand is always on the keyboard so I find it faster

Hey Balu -
Welcome to my ‘professional’ blog! Had I known you were coming over, I would have put the kettle on. Ha-ha.
Ctrl+click? That’s a nice little trick too! Where does everyone learn about this. Thanks for sharing it.
