I'm a keen programmer in my spare time. Here a couple of projects I've been working on recently.

 Chrome Extension: Big Back Button

This is a port of the popular Firefox extension MileWideBack. The extension turns the left edge of the browser into a large forward/back button. This only really works if the browser is maximised, but it means you can slam the mouse onto the left edge then quickly close/change tabs, go forward or back.

Instructions for Use

• Left click: Goes back one history item
• Right click: Goes forward one history item (also can close tab: see options)
• Middle click: Closes current tab
• Scroll Wheel: Change tab

Changelog

• Added options page, now can choose scroll behaviour, right click behaviour
• Scroll wheel now changes tabs
• Added middle click to close tabs

Bugs:

• The extension doesn't seem to work on the Google Chrome extensions site.
• If the extension doesn't seem to work, go to the Options Page and click save, its possible a the latest version need to save the options.
