While I am loving my Mac more and more, thought why not make you jealous with various enhancements I have been using.
MulticlutchA trackpad gesture customization app which you configure so that when you swipe or rotate or pinch your fingers, a new Safari tab opens or you switch to new tab or or go backward or forward while browsing. Details and download link available at
http://wcrawford.org/2008/02/28/everytime-i-think-about-you-i-touch-my-cell/TabExposéIf you have upgraded to Snow Leopard you would have definitely liked the improved expose features with quick-look like scrolling and switching features. Now imagine all your tabs exposing like various application windows and you are able to switch between them using cursor and arrow keys. Added to it is the fact that expose has quicklook features so you switch between tabs using cursor keys and press space bar to maximize a window.

Came across some nice quicklook plugins.
The first one is called the
