Tag cloning doesn’t sound like it would be too much fun. Sometimes you do need to have two tabs open showing the same Web site. You could launch the Web site twice. You could navigate to the Web site twice. Why do all that work? All you need to do is get Duplicate Tabs.

So what does the Duplicate Tabs extension do? Here is what the developer has to say about it:

Duplicate Tab allows you to clone a tab with its history and place the duplicate tab in a new window or in the current window. And it allows you to merge all tabs from different windows in one window.

Sounds simple enough, right? On Firefox, Duplicate Tab comes with two toolbar buttons: one to duplicate a tab and one to duplicate a tab to a new window. You can also do the same navigation through a few keyboard shortcuts as well.

This Firefox extension is for versions 1.0 and up of the browser. If you want to download it and try it out for yourself, you can do so at the Mozilla Update Web site.
