Works and has keyboard shortcuts. You can customise the window layout and make a list of websites to automatically split screen from (google search is listed by default). I like that you can use ctrl + click. NiftySplit doesn't let me do that.
However, when you close the second window, the main window doesn't maximise automatically. So here NiftySplit wins.
Also note that the keyboard shortcut can't be rebound (not a problem for me, might be for some)

Works well and allows really efficient work with CTRL and SHIFT mouseclicks on URLs.
The 'green' icon mode is very magic - but the description is not so intuitive: Perhaps rename the button tooltip from 'Turned on' to 'Auto-Split on' (as it does not control the overall add-on behavior, but just the 'auto' functionality).

I don't think this extension is as bad as other users have commented. It works exactly as described, and I haven't encountered any bugs. One thing to note is that it won't work if you're testing it on the https://addons.mozilla.org website.
