So helpful!! If you work in more than one org at a time this will have a great impact on your productivity.

I really appreciate being able to see that I am in a different instance by color. I just realized that you can click on the color it auto-assigns so you can change it to be something further away from other instances in case you work in 4 or 5 like I do. This solves a huge problem for me and am so grateful someone on my team showed this to me.

I've been using this extension since shortly after it was released, and it's a great example of a tool that identifies a problem (getting your tabs mixed up when you multiple orgs open at once), provides a solution, and does it well. It may not have dozens of features or tons of bells and whistles, but it doesn't need them because it doesn't what it needs to do. Despite its simplicity, it is one of the top 3 or so extensions that I really rely on and would miss if it went away. Pre-Google Sync days, I kept a list of extensions to reinstall whenever I got a new laptop, and this was at the very top of the list. It's still at the top of the list when I supply a list of recommended extensions to new devs.
