Firefox Extension: Next Please

This extension is a godsend for anyone who’s used to Opera’s Fast Forward feature. Basically what it does is recognise if a particular page has many sections, and then you can just use the “Next Please” button to skip to the next page. For example, if you’re reading a particular topic in a forum and you want to move to the next page of replies, you can just hit that button and go there instead of having to scroll down and click the link. Some of those pages that have a navigation scheme like: 1 2 3 4 and that’s really hard to navigate because you have to get the pointer just there and that’s painful on a touchpad.

The extension’s called ‘Next Please’. It’s really useful, now to see if it’s possible to use mouse gestures to get the task done.

  1. Interesting plugin. I already use mouse gestures and tried to make it work with it. The link you posted does not respond so this one should work better: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/390

    Adithya, laziness is another word for efficiency.
