You know, I think that if there was a person you didn't like, and you handed them Wasabi Peas and a Vernor's ginger ale, and told them to inhale the smell of Vernor's through their nose and then take a bite of the Wasabi Peas and then exhale through their nose, you could kill them and totally get away with it.

What are the "tabs" for in Firefox?
"Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?"
I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

Multiple browser windows.....  IE opens them up as separate windows, Firefox does it using the tabs.  Hit Ctrl+T.

But I also get multiple windows?  And most of the time the mozilla tabs are empty.

You need to open new windows as a tab.

I think perhaps it uses less system resources to have tabbed pages in one browser window rather than many separate browser windows. 

But I like lots and lots of windows.

You just don't like them grouped together.

Grouping the windows is almost as bad as tabbies.  Gah.

Well, I finally decided to download farky and farkit, so I guess I'll be using firefox more.  I know you all were on pins and needles wanting to know this.  ;)

And now I remember what I don't like about it, besides all the tabbies.  It doesn't tell me the url of the articles in the status bar.  Anyone know how to make it do that?

Nevermind.  Someone just told me how to change that.
