Tired of accidentally closing important tabs in Firefox? Tabberwocky, a useful tab-manager add-on, lets you protect a tab, open a duplicate tab next to the original, and lots more. Tabberwocky can move the ‘close tab’ button to either side of a tab, highlight unread tabs, retain a tab’s history when you open a link in a new tab — and that’s just the beginning! This tiny 25kb add-on has a list of options about a page long.

Tabberwocky’s main competition is the popular Tab Mix Plus add-on, which offers very similar features. What Tab Mix plus has that Tabberwocky still doesn’t is the session manager, so you can save and restore sets of tabs and windows, even after a crash. Tab Mix plus has been known to slow down Firefox’s performance on some systems though, so Tabberwocky might be a lighter alternative to try if you’ve been having problems with TMP.
