How to Subscribe RSS Feed?

Some of you may already know what is RSS feed and know how to subscribe them. But I’m sure some of you don’t know what exactly RSS feed and how you can use them as a loyal reader or visitor. But I will not discuss what is RSS here because you can learn it by asking Mr Google or you can read directly from here.

So, in this post I will teach you or I will guide you on how to subscribe RSS feed. But first, you need to get a RSS link and a feed aggregator or some peoples call them as a feed reader.

To get RSS link, usually it marks with these images or just a text like this.

Reopen last closed tab in Firefox

Sometimes we accidentally close a tab in Firefox we didn’t mean to close. Instead of looking the website we want in the History, you can do this trick to reopen the last closed tab.

If you accidentally close a tab, you just need to press “Ctrl + Shift + T“. And the last closed tab will be reopened in your Firefox.

Try it. Open a new tab, close the tab and press “Ctrl + Shift + T”. Very helpful huh? :d

Edit: You also can open last closed tab from History > Recently Closed Tabs. Thanks to Izzat for this tip. ;)
