Inappropriate?I'm not a big fan of sites opening new windows and tabs for me rather I prefer to make that decision myself (by holding down the command key in the case of FF or Safari on a Mac). What do others think?1 Comment

I think that you should allow for opening new windows/tabs. Twitter does. What if I'm browsing the content of a .mp site and i find something interesting? If I click it then I lose my place (interest) of the .mp site. -
Inappropriate?I did not bump this, but I think my comment is still valid. xD.
I do the same, Anthony. Often times when I click I link I am okay with reloading the page. If I want a new tab I use CTRL + Click or rightclick and open in new tab (in Safari...as Safari's 4 windows in new tab doesn't work so well yet).
I’m happy

Inappropriate?It's hard to make decisions like this because pages and people's browsing habits are different. This really should be a browser preference rather than an implemented link attribute.
I normally like to go with the rule if it's an external link then it should load in a new tab/page but internal links load in the same tab/page. That's at least how I expect most sites to act. A lot of sites us this and it makes sense to me.
A lot of times I choose to open things in new tabs anyway just because of the way I browse but everyone is different.
I’m amused
