What is Pin Tab?

"Pin Tab" is a Chrome extension that provides a useful feature for web users who open multiple tabs. It allows the user to create rules for automatic pinning of tabs based on their URLs. Additionally, the user can specify where a newly pinned tab should be placed, disable rules as needed, and even automate the shifting of unpinned tabs to the far right. This extension is also capable of pinning new tabs or tabs opened through the 'Open link in new tab' option.

Needs some sort of export tool, preferably to Chrome Sync. Other than that it does what you'd expect from it.
