Download of the Day: Send Tab URLs

Being the nut job that I am, I can't seem to cut back on the amount of tabs I keep open in Firefox - which usually total anywhere from 50 - 100. I know, I'm killing my RAM in the process and my MacBook is secretly threatening to crash on me once and for all. I used to be a big fan of CopyAllURLs, a handy Firefox add-on that would copy all of my open tabs and I could paste them in a text file. Therefore if Firefox ever crashed, and it didn't restore properly, I had all my fabulous tabs saved for future reference.

So you can understand how upset I was when I downloaded Firefox 3 and realized that CopyAllURLs wasn't compatible with the latest version of Firefox. Thankfully I found an even better add-on - Send Tab URLs. Send Tab URLs will not only create a list of all of the tabs from your browser, but it will send you an email with them as well (up to 24 tabs max)!

Geek Tip: Retrieving Closed Firefox Tabs

This happens to me all of the time. I'll be using Firefox to surf the net, open way too many tabs, close a few to open more and realize that I need to go back to a website. Well luckily there are a couple of tricks to help you get your tabs back. All you have to do is hit 'Command+Shift+T' for a Mac or 'Shift+Ctrl+T' for a PC and your last tab will appear. If you don't like keyboard shortcuts, just go to history and recently closed tabs and voila- you will see all your recently closed tabs!
