Better Back Button Extension

Have you ever noticed how browser history disappears when you're clicking back and forward a lot and then click on a link on a page? This extension helps by making sure your most recently visited sites stay available in one handy dropdown. You can skip opening a new tab for everything under the sun, knowing you won't lose track of where you've been.

See the web site for keyboard usage.

Derived from Dropdown List of Most Visited Links.

Scott Edwards (ID: 0000000f36d1cc66) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/29/2020 Shawn, I know you've probably forgotten you've even wrote this, given how long it has been, but I wanted to express my appreciation. It has changed the way I browse! I only wish there was something like this for firefox.
