I tried that, but it ended up just being a dump of oh so many bookmarks and I'd spend more time searching, finding all sorts of interesting stuff in my dumps of bookmarks, open those up, and then all of a sudden I'm back to having loads and loads of tabs open.
It would be great if browsers had an option to only allow one instance of a certain website. Half my problem is opening multiple tabs of gmail, whatsapp and facebook, for example, when i'm only actually looking for one instance of them.
Pinnes tabs solve that, actually. Whenever I hit a Facebook link or whatever it just switches to and navigates the Facebook tab to the URL. This is an awesome feature and probably singelhandedly responsible for cutting my tab count by the tens anyway. Still not enough, but definitely a step in the right direction.
Do you mean pinned tabs? It doesn't switch to the existing tab for me on chrome with osx. In what environment does this work because I'm very interested in it.
Oh sorry, I meant in Safari. Pinned tabs in Chrome was the killer feature that kept me around. When Safari finally got them I switched in a heart beat and haven't looked back since. (Other than for dev.)
Seriously, I'm like a tab addict. I need help.
