Other than being faster than its predecessor, Firefox 2.0 has several interesting new features. However after using it day in and day out for several months now, the one feature that has risen to the top of my list of favorites is the History | Recently Closed Tabs menu. I tend to work with many, many tabs open. When I inadvertently close a tab where perhaps I was in the middle of filing a bug or replying to an OTN forum thread or consulting any other information -- this feature allows me to "undo" the last ten tabs I've closed, and even seems to remember the text I had typed into fields of the form. It has saved me from my own accidental tab-closings many times now. To undo the very most recently closed tab, you can just press [Ctrl]-[Shift]-T as a keyboard shortcut, too. It's the [Shift]-modified keyboard shortcut companion to the [Ctrl]-T key that opens up a new tab, so it's easy to remember.
