Linky

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Linky is a decent enough extension except for its placement - WAY down on the context menu, which makes finding it a bit challenging. It also doesn't seem to put options directly on the context menu, so you have to go to the Linky> selection, then click on what you want. I'd put it up near the top of the context menu or put an option to place one or two (Like open selected links in new tabs) directly on the context menu up at the top where one is opening links.

It's better than nothing, but often times, it's faster to just right-click a link and click Open in new tab over and over.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (2.7.1).

This is an excellent extension, but getting it to work with FF 3.0 is a bit tricky. Go to IE, and download the .xpi file (Open page in IE Tab is a good extension choice to have anyhow). Open the .xpi file with Winzip (or other zip utility). Open the .rdf file in Notepad. Find the em:maxVersion= text and change the version to "3.0", then save the .rdf file and make sure it goes back into the .xpi file (The .rdf file should show the new date). Then use the file->open method of installing the extension. It will then install and work. I've tested it in XP Pro, XP Home and Win 2000 Pro and they all work well. No idea if it will work for Mac or Linux. Use these instructions at your own risk!!!

Open the .xpi with Winzip (or another zip utility), open the .rdf file with Notepad. Find the Max Version number and change it to 3.0. Save the .rdf file back. Make sure it's updated in Winzip. Use the File->open to install. Works great in 3.0. (Note, use the above instructions at your own risk on other extensions - I know works great on this one.)
