Tab Rotate

Loop through a set of tabs - ideal for a Dashboard or Advertisement Display

What is Tab Rotate?

Tab Rotate is a Chrome extension designed for automatic cycling through a set of pre-configured tabs. This is perfect for use in dashboard or advertising display situations. Notably, it doesn't affect the regular usage of open tabs. The configuration can be set by a JSON file, and it supports preloading of tabs for smoother transitions. Furthermore, its configuration can be remotely loaded from a server which adds to its flexibility.
