That&#8217;s not always ideal.  Have you ever found yourself in one of these scenarios?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You&#8217;re shopping, and you want to open multiple products at the same time to compare them.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re reading an article and come across an interesting link, but you want to read it later without losing your place.<\/li>\n<li>You&#8217;re doing research, and you&#8217;d like to open many search results separately.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You&#8217;re in luck: There&#8217;s a quick and easy way to open any link in a new tab whenever you want without messing around with settings or preferences!<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>On a <strong>Mac<\/strong>, hold the <kbd>Command<\/kbd> key when you click on a link to open it in a new tab.<\/li>\n<li>On <strong>Windows<\/strong> or <strong>Linux<\/strong>, hold the <kbd>Control<\/kbd> key when you click on a link to open it in a new tab.<\/li>\n<li>On <strong>iOS<\/strong> or <strong>Android<\/strong>, long-press on a link and a menu will appear with an option to open the link in a new tab.  If you&#8217;re on an iOS device that supports force touch or 3D touch, make sure you don&#8217;t press too hard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using a Mac, Windows, or Linux PC you can also right-click on a link which will present a menu allowing you to open it in a new tab, but using the keyboard is usually much easier and faster.  One other thing: Clicking on links as described above may open them in new windows instead of tabs.  If you&#8217;re getting one behavior and would prefer the other you should be able to adjust this behavior in your web browser&#8217;s settings.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shopping?
