# "Quick Tabs" in Firefox

Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) for Windows XP+ only has been released in November 2006. Some have said the “Quick Tabs” is reason alone to use IE7.

**Firefox** already has had such a feature through add-ons:

**[Tab Catalog](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1937/)** — [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1937/](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1937/)

- Has an option to disable the viewing of the tab catalog on button roll-over. The Tab Catalog button is a well-behaved toolbar element and can be placed where desired on the toolbar(s).

**[Firefox Showcase](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1810/)** — [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1810/](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1810/)

- Very much like Quick Tabs.

**[Viamatic foXpose](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1457/)** — [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1457/](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/1457/)

- Also, very much like Quick Tabs.

**[Ctrl Tab Preview](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2134/)** — [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2134/](https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/2134/)

- A bit different. Has a very Mac OS X feel to it.

As with most Firefox extensions, many options are available for a given extension/add-on.

It has been said, ***“If you are not using Firefox extensions, you are not using Firefox”***.
