Compiz in your browser - unlock Firefox 3.6 hidden features

If you're running lucid, you should have the latest version 3.6 of Firefox from Mozilla.

Here are some hidden features  disabled by default, similar to Compiz expo and shift-switcher.

Preview Tabs in Firefox

Open a new tab and type "about:config" into the address bar. Then find the following value and set it to true instead of false:
 browser.ctrlTab.previews

Once activated, you can preview tabs using  keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Tab (or Ctrl + Shift + Tab if you want to have the search engine as well).

To activate the display, also change the following option to true:
 browser.allTabs.previews
