I get a list of IDs back from Dataloader.io
I just want to open all of them. Is there a script/webapp where I can just paste a list of IDs and it would open then all up in new pages?

You could log in to salesforce, copy and paste the ID values into your browser's console, surrounded by braces, and then use forEach:
['00Q000000000000','00Q000000000001','00Q000000000002'].forEach(function(v) { window.open('/'+v); });
To get a list that looks like that, I'd open the file in my favorite multi-purpose text editor, add a quote character before and after each line, add a comma between each, then stick on the brackets on either side. Of course, this is overkill, but you could do with with a bit of persistence.

1there is also a cute trick to do the rows to delimited list of strings in Excel - chandoo.org/wp/2014/01/13/combine-text-values-quick-tip– cropredyJan 8, 2016 at 1:20
I have a solution. Not perfect but perhaps doable.
I assume you are in a CSV/Excel. If so, create a new column and create a hyperlink formula.
If you make your formula: http://<yourSfInstance>/<columnwithid> (so it would look something like http://naxx.salesforce.com/00Q000000000LibD) then you can click each link and open it.
Not the most elegant, but better than 1000 copy-pastes.

1Or, one could get crazy and just write up a Visualforce page to do it. It'd take like two minutes.– sfdcfoxJan 7, 2016 at 21:50
