firefoxAre you researching on something and want to open multiple links from the Google search? Or you have a webpage with multiple download links to some whitepapers?

Selection Links – A FireFox Add-on can open Multiple links in separate FireFox tabs and can start multiple downloads just by selecting those links and clicking the desired option to either open those links or download them.

It is still an experimental add-on but I am yet to encounter any problems. It saves a lot of hours of clicking all those links one by one; specially for those who do internet research work.

All you need to do is install the add-on and restart FireFox, select the links you want to open/download, right click and select either Selection Open or Selection Download, it will open/start downloading the selected links. Works with latest FireFox version. It is Smart. Simple and Extremely useful.
