If you're one of those who use Safari and finds the idea appealing: Tabs To Links[0] is a Safari native extension that does something similar.

Pretty polished, and has some goodies like trimming the site's name from the tab title. It's made by Benjamin Mayo[1]. Very useful.

Just curious - what is the amount of tabs that everyone else has open right now in their browser?

I currently have 29... Trying to figure out on which side I'm an outlier. I know (thanks to the favicon) what each tab is and when I'll use it next, but am I just wasting ram on my computer and in meatspace?

I have about 200 tabs open in Firefox right now, spread out over a couple of windows (general, video, work 1, work 2, applications). I am using TreeStyleTabs though

> You are about to close 11 windows with 68 tabs

Try to keep it < 50 and 2-3 windows on average.

I have 5 tabs open. It usually bounces between 5-50 as I try to close tabs I'm not using.

I feel like browsers should have a refresh button. I have Firefox set to clear history and tabs on closing since that is what I usually prefer. However, once in a while I'll have 20 tabs open, but Firefox has been running for days and I feel like it's eating up more memory than it needs and getting sluggish. It would be nice to click a button where it simply closes and reopens Firefox with all of the tabs present again.

In my mobile phone I have more than 100 tabs open. I can't really read the amount of tabs because the number had been changed to a :D (after 99 instead of 100 it displays the :D)!

I just keep tabs open as a reminder to read stuff but unfortunately I rarely find the time. I guess I'll need to find a better way to organise my 'to read' list ...

I'm way beyond ':D'...
