Without expose, how do you switch tabs visually? I know you can press cmd+' but my gf asked me how to switch visually, and I don't know the answer. Mission control doesnt do it, all the tabs are stacked you can hardly see. I't seems like we're going backwards with Lion.....

Tabs as in, with the browser? If so, command + tab goes forward and command + shift + tab goes backwards.

OH, you mean swap program windows while Mission Control is up?
 
There's no way to do it if they're tabbed. You will have to drag the tab off of the window and create a new window with it.

If you use this often, go to Safari>Preferences and configure it so that links open new windows.

It's actually Control+Tab to go forward and Control+Shift+Tab to go backwards when using a web browser, not Command...

Wow *facepalm* I know that. I use it all of the time.

That's what happens when you constantly switch from SL to Win 7, you put more emphasis on control and command, depending on where you're working of course.
