Open Thread: How are you using tabs?
Merlin Mann | Oct 17 2005
I live in browser tabs. Whether I'm in Safari or Firefox, I'm constantly sending links to a new tab ( But, by far, my biggest gains come from the numerous tabbed bookmark sets that I keep in my favorites bar. These include:
I've also got tab sets for finances, 43f stats, news sites, friends' blogs, and even a set of about 10 pages that comprise the theme templates I use most in WordPress (makes for super fast editing sessions). So. My question to you is: How are you using tabs and tab sets? Anybody doing sexy fu with Saft? Safari Stand? Tabbrowser Preferences? Open thread, so tell us your best tab tricks and tools in comments. 37 Comments

I love tabs when I'm...Submitted by Eric Lechner (not verified) on October 17, 2005 - 7:50am.
I love tabs when I'm doing online browsing, like for books on Amazon. On the first pass through my searching, I open a new tab for each link that seems like it may have interesting things that I might be interested in. After I've exhausted the search on one tab, I go through the tabs, and do a more detailed review. If there are other links there that may have promise or ideas for more searching, they get their own tabs. Each tab gets closed as I either abandon that path, or have added it to a wishlist or shopping cart. It drives me nuts that I can't do this on audible.com. They've built javascript into all of their links, and force you to use a single window for everything. (And that on top of their links being really slow all on their own.) » POSTED IN:
