Extension summary

A simple extension that places all the tabs that have media playing next to the current tab you are on so you can control playback quickly.

Just click on the extension button to highlight the audio tab(s)-- no more hunting through multiple open windows and tabs for that elusive screen when you want to pause playback.

Note: the ONLY permission that it requires is the tabs permission but Chrome interprets as 'it has to access your browsing history', which in fact it doesn't. Feel free to have a look at the code on github (linked below)
