Cut to the chase: Is there something similar to Firefox's Firegestures add-on for ie8? More below:
A couple of years ago I switched over to Firefox. (Mostly due to security concerns and speed issues). Got rather used to Firefox but when I heard the news that internet explorer 8 was being released this week I thought I'd give microsoft another shot. So far I like what I see. It appears to be more secure and faster. I also like some of the new features like the accelerators.
However, there is one add-on that Firefox had that I miss a lot which is firegestures. Firegestures allows you to simply right-click and then drag left or right to forego hitting the back and forward buttons. (You could also open tabs/windows, close tabs/windows, etc but I rarely used these.)
It's been a few years since I've been a regular ie user and I really am trying to give microsoft another chance and learn more about the new browser. But at the same time everytime I get on the internet I hesitate before I click 'the little e' - just because I know to navigate pages I'll have to move my cursor way up to the upper left corner. (I know I'm lazy!)
p.s. Just an observation that I noticed since I've been typing - one more feature that ie8 seems to be lacking is a spell-checker which Firefox has.
