Here is the official list of keyboard shortcuts in Firefox. In particular I've found a few ridiculously useful:
Ctrl + Page-Up / Page-Down – Switch to the next/last tab
Ctrl + Tab – Cycle through tabs (just learned these!)
Ctrl + E – Switch the focus to the searchbox in the address bar
Tab – Next field
Shift + Tab – Last field
the Tab key function works for IE also. It's not a Firefox invention.
The tab function has existed forever. You're not a genius for realizing it.
The two previous posters may have missed the points of the tip. The tip highlighted a few hotkeys, out of a long list, that are very useful and worth memorizing, not to single out FireFox as special for having them nor to point out something new with respect to the Tab key.
