Close Duplicate and Emply Tabs in Firefox with Duplicate Tab Closer Extension

Tabbed Browsing made internet browsing smoother by removing distractions. It has become popular since Mozilla implemented this feature in its open source browser Firefox and mainly this is the feature that made Firefox the better choice among technologically inclined peoples. I have seen a number of friends who are totally taboholic. Although tabbed browsing is a gift, with each tab opened, the system resource usage increases. While multiple tabs are open, there is every chance of having a number of duplicate and empty tabs. To quickly reduce system resource usage originating from duplicate and empty tabs, you can use the Duplicate Tab Closer extension for Firefox.

Multi Dictionary Lookup can Query a Word in Different Online Dictionaries

If English is not your Mother Language and if you are not fluent in it, you must have felt the need to consult dictionaries while doing a conversation, reading an article or preparing a writeup. There are a number of desktop dictionary software and online directories available that you can use but to quickly learn about an unknown word, a browser add-on is the best one to have. Multi Dictionary Lookup is a Firefox Addon that can quickly lookup a word from one of several different dictionaries. Currently it supports the Free Dictionary, the Urban Dictionary, and the Bee Dictionary. In words of the developer,
I created this add-on because I felt the need for a dictionary plug-in that lets me look up the definition of a word without leaving the page that I am reading. A simple right click on the highlighted word brings up a choice of dictionaries with which to look up the word. New words constantly appear in the English language, and such words may not be present in the official English dictionary. For such words, I consult the Urban Dictionary. For some words, it helps to know the synonym and antonym, along with sample usage in a sentence. For such words, I consult the Bee Dictionary.For the rest, the Free Dictionary is the best!
