Use your mouse wheel to speed up opening tabs in your internet browser
Posted by Mysti under How-to articlesWhile browsing the internet, do you like to open the links that interest you in separate tabs to read later? Most people know that they can right click on a link and select Open in New Tab, but did you know that there’s an even faster way to do this?
If you are using a recent version of Internet Explorer or Firefox you can simply click on a link with your middle mouse button or wheel. This will automatically open that link in a new tab.
Note: If you are using a laptop and you are looking for a faster way to do this than the right-click option, you can instead hold down the Ctrl key when clicking a link.
