open links as background tabs by clicking links and holding for a half second..
This extension enabled opening links in a new tab with one button.
When installed a long click on a link (½ second) will cause it to open in a new background tab.
This is an alternative to "middle-click" or "right-click->new tab" which is especially useful when using it on button-less laptops (Macbook) or laptops with only two buttons.
Note: This should work on all sites, please contact me at [email protected] if you notice any issues.
update 2.1 - [Known Issue] Facebook and Google Reader and some other sites open the clicked link in current window after long click.
Workaround is to click and drag off after new tab has opened.
