cycling through your buffers with Ctrl-Tab

Emacs-users tend to have many buffers open, -- maybe some source code files, an email message, a short note etc.There are many ways to switch from one buffer to another, but I like the quick and easy way of cycling through them with Ctrl-Tab, just like tabs in Firefox.

It's quite trivial to add this keybinding to your .emacs:

;; cycle through buffers with Ctrl-Tab (like Firefox)
(global-set-key (kbd "<C-tab>") 'bury-buffer)

If you want a more advanced version that ignores certain buffers, you could take a look at ControlTABbufferCycling in EmacsWiki.
