Hello everyone, this will be my first post on Firefox addons, sorry Internet Explorer users.
Tab Scope is an Firefox addon similar to Tab Preview. This addon enables a user to check out the contents of a tab by merely hovering the mouse over the tab. What's more, the popup preview lets you scroll a page up and down, great for skimming a page without leaving your current tab. Navigational command such as back, forward, refresh and stop are available. Pretty nice, like the Picture-on-Picture feature of the TV.
Made a nifty list of situation in which you can find this important:
1.) While watching a video on YouTube, you want to skim over your live list of email on GMail without actually leaving the current tab.
2.) You are doing an article based on a Wikipedia entry; while typing on your blog, you decided to look on to the preview of the Wikipedia article (rephrasing is better than copy-paste).
3.) You have too many active tabs, you wish to close the useless ones but can't afford to check them all. You decided to preview them one by one saving a lot of clicks (reduces the work to exert).
Still don't have FIREFOX,
