2017-11-11 Dane Stotzer I agree with the other reviews. It works as described, but it is limited. It does not work on all links. When it works it "always" opens a new tab even if you don't want it to. The real problem is that Chrome does not provide a setting to bring new tabs to the top. So many other browsers have this feature. It's a shame.

2013-12-14 Chris Brislawn Installed under OSX Mavericks. This extension does NOT enable the behavior I wanted, which is for browser focus to automatically follow the last link clicked, regardless of whether or not it's opened in a new tab. Instead, it opens EVERY link clicked in a new tab by default, which quickly leads to a huge number of open tabs. I was led to this extension by a Google search, but, while the description of its behavior on the DETAILS tab is accurate, I cannot imagine why anyone would want to enable this particular default behavior. Accordingly, I give it one star for poorly motivated functionality and lack of a compelling use-case.
