You can take it further (if you have more than one site/port to connect to) - install a proxy on the remote machine (e.g. "squid" or maybe apache's mod_proxy) and forward a tunnel to it as you describe then setup localhost:8080 as your proxy (firefox extensions can allow you to use this proxy only for certain sites).
Or better yet use ssh -d <some local port> and set your local SOCKS proxy to localhost:<that port> in your browser.
