Firefox with its extension “Easy DragToGo”, enables interaction with highlighted text and images via mouse gestures.
Allows you to open links in new tabs, search texts, save images and do more with drag and drop gestures easier.
Text actions are determined by whether or not the highlighted text is a URL or not, and by the variables you assign in the preferences menu.
All non-URL text when highlighted and dragged becomes a Google search. Drag up to search in a new foreground tab, drag down to search in a new background tab. You assign gestures to opening new URLs, searching text, and saving images. The amount of movement required to trigger the assigned action in Easy DragToGo is minuscule, which makes for some wonderfully lazy mousing.
Below is the information based on Firefox add-on website:
