Tabtation

Let’s face it, whether we’re currently undergoing a hardcore screening and documentation process online or we’re simply looking to learn new stuff by reading on forums or watching YouTube videos, we’ve all been there – at a point where we have too many open tabs.

If Google Chrome is your “weapon” of choice for your daily business online, then you might want to check out a simple yet very useful extension called Tabtation. As its name suggests, it’s designed to help you keep your so-called TMTS syndrome (Too Many Tabs Syndrome) in check.

It does so by automatically organizing large numbers of Chrome tabs in a “Tabtation Bar” located in the bottom part of Chrome’s window on every tab. The organization aspect is based on the domains of all the currently open web sites.

The so-called and previously mentioned Tabtation Bar makes it very easy for you to go over and access all your open tabs in a more intuitive manner. The bar also provides you with a quick way of toggling between the last recently used tabs. To access this feature simply hover the mouse cursor over the first tab displayed in the bar’s left side.

Just like most extensions of this sort, Tabtation can be installed from the Chrome Web Store. Once installed, the extension requires you to sign-in to your Google Account, and manually allow Tabtation to view your Chrome Web Store apps and extensions.

Once you’ve provided the extension with all the necessary permissions, the extension should make its presence known via the typical icon on the right side of the address bar, as well as ia its default bar on the bottom side of Chrome’s window.

Tabtation is a straightforward and efficient Chrome extension that allows you to work with a great number of tabs simultaneously by automatically organizing them based on their domain at the bottom of Google Chrome’s window. The only potential drawback of this extension is the lack of customizability options (an option that would allow users to select the bar’s size would have been very useful).
