If you accidentally close too many tabs, Shift-Ctrl-T will reopen them. And will remember content in forms.

I like Chrome.




holy shit. you just made my day.


Shift-cmd-t makes you wonder what the hell everybody else is doing that it took so long to get this feature.


Actually, its been in Firefox for at least as long as Chrome has existed... I can't remember a Firefox build without it, but... it's been a while.


You are, of course, correct. I don't know what I was thinking. I haven't really used ff since switching to chrome, although I find I do need to boot it up to make the occasional flash application work. Also, webkit-based browsers have some wonky css handling. I guess my brain has some sort of cognitive bias where I unknowingly attribute everything that's awesome about Chrome to Chrome itself.


Also, Ctrl-Z in Opera also works, which makes perfect sense and is less for the user to learn, and is discoverable (in the sense, they can go to the standard Edit -> Undo menu which is more visible.) Although actually, Opera also has a visible basket of closed tabs on the right of the tab bar, which is even better.
