This quick tip is a follow up to last week's Easily Navigate Tabs in Eclipse. In addition to being able to use find-as-you-type to change tabs in Eclipse, you can also do the same in firefox using Ubiquity. Just invoke Ubiquity using the key combination you assigned and type tab and begin typing. The matching tabs will begin showing up in the Ubiquity window. I'll admit that I do not use this feature as often as in Eclipse (I tend to favor COMMAND-SHIFT-[ and COMMAND-SHIFT-] to browse tabs); however, this is a very nice feature if you know the title of the specific tab you want to go to and have many tabs open in the same window.

As a side note, in addition to Ubiquity being able to switch tabs in firefox, it has a large set of features that make working on the web a lot easier. My personal favorites are the wiki, tinyurl (great for emails), and map commands.
