Clusterurl's Blog

There have been some great improvements launched today  in version 1.1.1 of the Cluster Tabs for Firefox Add-on, check it out by downloading cluster tabs from the Mozilla Add-ons Site.

Note: If you have the add-on installed you can get it by selecting Tools > Add-ons from the menu in Firefox then click ‘Find updates” button and follow the instructions.

The main headline is that clusters can now be created via a new web form!  Just head on over to www.clusterurl.com/create
 
If your new to clustering we should also explain that using the add-on for Firefox enables cool thumbnails to be made and easy posting to social networks plus you get the benefit of putting-tabs-back into Cluster tabs!

Noteworthy improvements also include …

1. New ability to post cluster tabs to: FriendFeed, Mozillaca and MySpace in addition to Twitter, & Facebook already available in version 1.0

2. You can now re-arrange thumbnails of tabs within a Cluster Tab by dragging and dropping them, just click and hold any thumbnail to drag it to a new position. This has been a popular request from our users and we are pleased to be able to fit this one into this release, it works really well.



3. The ability for you to add optional tags to clusters you create enables search engines to find them easier. All you have to so is add them when you are adding a description and you are all set.
 



4. You can see which country any cluster tab was created in, just look at the small grey text at the footer of any cluster.

5. You can now refresh individual thumbnails within cluster tabs you’ve created (should the page change) Just hover over the thumbnail and click on the ‘refresh thumbnail’ link



6. Thumbnail generation has improved to avoid blank thumbnails

7. Resolved add-on conflicts with NoScript add-on



8. An arrow button instead of “x” button is shown on any tabs opened from a cluster tab in your browser to indicate that,  ‘closing’ is really ‘returning’ the tab to the cluster tab it came from.
