FoxTab makes Firefox tab switching prettier, if not more convenient
This Firefox add-on lets you cycle through previews of your open tabs much the same way that Windows Vista and Windows 7's Flip 3D feature lets you flip through running programs. Actually, you can pick from 5 different views. One mimics the Aero Flip 3D look, while the others arrange previews in a line, a wall, or other format.
You can launch FoxTab by hitting Ctrl+Q, and you can use the same key combination to flip through your tabs. Hit enter once you've found the web page you're looking for and you'll go right to that tab. Or you can navigate with your mouse if that's your kind of thing.
I have to say, FoxTab makes the process of cycling through tabs a lot prettier. And if you have a ton of tabs open, I suppose this plugin could make it easier to find the one you're looking for. But in most circumstances, I think it would take longer to find tabs using FoxTab than by hitting Ctrl+Tab or just using your mouse to click on the tab you want to open.

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
