Clicking "Save Window" closes my browser -- WTH! What application closes when you click Save? Poor design decision. I've got a bunch of tabs open and I want to save the list. Can't I just save it and keep working? No, clicking Save closes my browser. Uninstalling...

Ich verstehe den Sinn nicht. Die Anzeige der geöffneten TABS ist nicht kompatibel mit den auch dort angebotenen Kontextbefehlen wie Drucken. In der Druckvorschau erscheinen nicht die Inhalte der Tabs sondern nur der Anzeigedialog der Erweiterung selbst, das hilft nicht.

TabMate is really cool! It's like having a tidy toy box for all my internet pages. I can flip through them easily and even put some aside for later. It's super easy to find my pages again, and I get to name my collections, like my sticker albums! It makes using the computer a lot more fun and way less messy.
