There is no possible way that it could take a person more time to click a button that their middle finger is resting on than to move one hand to press a key while clicking.

If you right click on a link, you have to then choose "open in new tab" off a menu. That takes more time than command-click, especially on a laptop where the touchpad is so close to the keyboard you do not actually have to move your hand.

As he said, he's not talking about Right-Clicking. If you have a Scroll Wheel in the middle of your mouse, like most PC users, you can click on the scroll wheel and open a link in a new tab. That's a single click feature. Not a click in combination with any other key, nor a click that's part of a sequence of actions. One click of the scroll wheel with index or middle finger is by far the easiest way to open a link in a new tab.


Huh. I never heard of this function. Even back when I had a pc.
