Nah, I was writing this because of being pointed to a page with, like, twenty or thirty links to perspectives on the Harlan-Ellison-Groping-Connie-Willis-At-The-Hugos incident of this past weekend's Worldcon. And every single link wanted to open a new window... and I already had another browser window open already for the WTC comic I was browsing through! (which actually kinda needed one, as it was laid out for a larger space than I normally give my browser.)
I tend to use tabs the way you use new windows. But sometimes I just want to use the forwards/backwards model of browsing, and new windows break that. I should probably just adjust my ad-blocker to strip out 'target=_blank' stuff...
I didn't even notice that your links were to new windows; I apple-clicked on them to open them in new tabs.
