What can you do with mouse gestures? They always seemed like another weapon in the war on my wrists.

A lot of stuff...I mainly use it for back and forward though...Instead of having to get my mouse to the upper left corner i can just move it to the left or right a bit to go back or forward...

I cant use firefox without speed dial and gestures...Unless I have a 4 button mouse.

Stylish is a cool addon, no functionality just for looks. You can download styles to make google, youtube, or wikipedia look less fail.

Starcraft has a tank and a marine and other units built-in. Doesn't mean it's comparable to Spring.

no gestures...i edit the hotkeys so back is (hold left, click right), and the opposite goes forward.

similar 2or3-button combination for other necessary functions

I only need the standard back arrow for returning to previous page. If I wanted to use other keys I'd move somewhere else so my internet can keep up first :P

i only use adblock and once i used some downloadmanager.
and changing some things in the about:config dialog but only thing i can remember right now was order of tabs. in last update they would open in same strange system...

sometimes i wish there as a plugin that when you select/mark on a long page and scroll, the selected part will not scroll. but iam not sure how that would work out.
or maybe just press crtl-1 to set a "bookmark" at "35% scrolled down" and then you press alt-1 to jump back there.
some programing text editor have that and i find it quite usefull...

What about duplicate tabs?
what about closed tabs list when you right click a tab title?
What about having pics on blank pages of your browser of your most visited sites which are links to those sites?
Using bookmarks is much slower.
