Sequential Mass URL Opener

When you launch Chrome, all the tabs you had opened during your last browsing session will load simultaneously by default. It’s the same when you open multiple tabs that you are interested in exploring. Because all tabs are loading at the same time, that can make your computer feel sluggish, especially if it doesn’t have too many resources.

Sequential Mass URL Opener is an extension that can change all that, by ensuring that each page fully loads before moving on to the next.

You can install the tool in the typical manner of all Chrome extension and access it to start adding the links that you want to be opened. Unlike other tools that open multiple links at once, this tool can be helpful for things like reducing sudden Internet traffic, preventing errors when loading too many links from the same site too fast (like 503 errors), and more.

The extension includes a handful of settings that can be useful in various situations. Some examples include that you can configure the add-on to close when the list is complete, open it in a new window or in the Incognito mode, which can be useful when you are looking up vacation packages for instance.

According to the developer, the extension might benefit from a feature that enables you to access the bookmarks folders in the future. While the idea behind this feature can make your browsing more organized and efficient, it is worth nothing that currently it’s not possible to implement due to lack of support from Chrome’s API.

Sequential Mass URL Opener seems to be good choice if you normally work with multiple tabs, but have an older computer with not too many resources. Since the links are opened one by one, you will feel the lack of resources less.
