Four Features We Want To See In Android (And How To Get Them)

BarTab is a popular add-on for Firefox, preventing tabs from a previous session from loading until you activate them.

Remember The ‘Sometimes, Always, Never’ Rule When Wearing A Suit Coat
Most men’s suit jackets have three buttons down the front. Leave them all unbuttoned and you look informal. Button them all and you look like a schoolboy in his first suit or a school uniform.
