Comments on: One Web Browser Isn’t Enough http://www.markevanstech.com/2009/08/26/one-web-browser-isnt-enough/ Thoughts on Startups, Entrepreneurs and the Web Thu, 09 Feb 2012 17:25:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Amanda Laird http://www.markevanstech.com/2009/08/26/one-web-browser-isnt-enough/comment-page-1/#comment-191305 Amanda Laird Thu, 27 Aug 2009 02:14:18 +0000 http://www.markevanstech.com/2009/08/26/one-web-browser-isnt-enough/#comment-191305 My name is Amanda, and I am also a tab addict. I can have anywhere from 10-30 or more tabs open at a given time. My first task when I arrive at my desk in the morning is to scan Google Reader and Twitter for interesting articles and posts I might want to read. I then open a second browser window to go about any web business I might during my day. Throughout the course of the day I skim each article/tab in my first browser, read the ones that are most interesting, and close the tab once I've saved it to delicious or tweeted it. This is a good system that works for me. My name is Amanda, and I am also a tab addict. I can have anywhere from 10-30 or more tabs open at a given time.

That is the way I normally work with a million tabs open in each one. Sometimes have 3 windows open spread across a number of monitors. What I would not live without is Session Manager addon. That way I can save a number of different setups that I can open up at any given time with a single click. There is nothing stopping you from opening up a couple FF windows (File->New Window).

I use chrome for all my permanently open tabs like google reader and gmail, and I use firefox for all my other browsing. One thing that I find really useful when having lost of tabs open is to italicize the titles of the non-read tabs. Here's a link to the lifehacker post on how to do it without an extension: <a href="http://lifehacker.com/5190596/italicize-your-unread-tabs-in-firefox-without-an-extension" target="_blank">http://lifehacker.com/5190596/italicize-your-unre...</a> I do this as well.

1) a squijillion tabs open at once
2) usually Chrome and Firefox
3) Tweetdeck takes care of what would have been a minimum of three open tabs
