DeadMouse Opens Links With Your Keyboard

Chrome: You can do almost all of your web browsing with just keyboard shortcuts, but in Chrome one of the missing features is the ability to open links inside a page. With the DeadMouse extension, you get that ability just by typing the words in the link.

DeadMouse is pretty straightforward. With the extension installed you can start typing the first letters of a link you want to follow and the link starts jiggling. Hit Enter to open up the link or Shift+Enter to open it in a new tab. If multiple links have the same words you can cycle through them with the Tab key. It’s simple, but makes browsing a breeze.

Firefox users already have this ability with the search function. Hit the “/” key and type the text in the link and Firefox will highlight. Hit Enter and you can follow the link.
