Common irritating scenario I come across while web browsing. I read an article and notice an interesting hyperlink. I follow it by right-clicking and opening a new tab so I can read it in a minute or I can read it now and then close it and come back to my current tab. After a while the PC starts to chug so I decide to close the tabs I’ve already read. HOWEVER all the big browsers only seem to default to closing tabs to the right. WHO is this useful to? People who read right-to-left? Time travelers?

Luckily I’ve come across a solution to this. This browser extension will give you a handy button allowing you to regain control of your PC before next Christmas. Why this isn’t available by default is beyond me.

UPDATE : Chrome version
