Mac 101: Safari tab tricks

This isn't related to tabs, but I have a trick I use to make accessing my bookmarks a lot easier. I dump all my bookmarks into my "bookmarks bar" and have created a hierarchical structure. I categorize everything into simple folders like Apple, Clients, CSS, Design, etc. then have categories of folders within those that contain my bookmarks. Also if you need to sort your bookmarks in alpha (which Apple really needs to fix) take all your bookmarks out of safari and dump them into a folder on your computer and sort by name. Then simply drag those bookmarks back into the safari folder.

Something else with Firefox that is lacking from Safari is the ability to drag an image from the internet straight to photoshop or illustrator. Firefox does this goofy Quicktime Image conversion when you try and the only workaround is saving the picture to your HD. quite irritating.

I hate the way Safari handles tabs... if it weren't for this, I would
use it exclusively. I HATE having a drop down list at the end of my
window when I'm working on a bunch of tabs...
I like how in Firefox I can just flick my mouse wheel and it scrolls
through all my tabs.

If it were possible, in Safari, to use Cmd+(number) to jump to tabs directly (instead of calling a bookmark from the toolbar) I'd use it much much more.

I also like the fact that Safari remembers the windows you had open in your last session...

History>Reopen All Windows From Last Session

Because once or twice I have hit Open Apple Q by mistake, or W once too many times and wiped out work I was doing. It makes it really easy to recover from stuff like that.

After the hype, I switched to Firefox, but I found myself using more and more Safari, because scrolling in Firefox is incredibly S L U G G Y. Surfing with Safari, IMHO, is a far more pleasant experience.

See ! Everyone kept saying Apple is useless and Safari si not up to the mark. Firefox Rulz. But, after all Safari has great features and half a dozen of them are not even known by people !

Safari allows you to "tear" off tabs.

7 Words. Pretty simple.

What about the number one feature that Safari has and Firefox is missing:

Green button resizes window to fit the web page's content.

This is an absolutely fantastic feature because you can know you're viewing all the website has to show you and maximize screen real estate. Especially useful on macbooks where screens are relatively tiny.

Why oh why doesn't Firefox have this??

Wow, I use Safari almost exclusively and am always opening multiple tabs. I knew you could right-click to open in a new window but never even thought to drag the tabs off. I guess I should have figured that was an option; it IS Macintosh, after all!!
