Direct Link is a Mozilla add-on that facilitates opening links in a new tab, enhancing browsing efficiency by saving time and hassle from manual tab creation.
Additionally, users can choose to open the selected text as an article in English Wikipedia, which can be particularly helpful when conducting research or expanding knowledge on a particular topic. Finally, Direct Link also offers the option to perform an "I'm feeling lucky" Google search with the selected text, which can be a fun way to discover new information or websites.
One potential drawback is that Direct Link is only available for Firefox 1.5 or later, meaning that users of older versions of the popular web browser may not be able to take advantage of its features. However, for those who do have compatible versions of Firefox, Direct Link can be a valuable tool for quickly accessing and referencing information while browsing the web.
