Everybody wants lots of search results, but clicking each one gets
dull fast. If you're using Firefox, you can deal with those results
all at once with the free Snap Links extension, which lets you draw
a box around a group of links and either open or save them. It's as
simple as a right-click-and-drag: In my tests with various search
engines and PCWorld.com search re--sults, it worked swimmingly.
By default, Snap Links opens all your chosen links in new tabs in
the original window. But that's not your only option. Holding down
when you start drawing your magic box produces a menu of options.
You can open the links in a new window (or several), bookmark them,
or save the results to the Clipboard. Fight click tedium by making
any of these the default for handling selected links.
