My tabs idea (with a picture!) Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Tab organization!

Here's the pic:

I open tabs like crazy. With plenty of them open, OmniWeb should be able to sort and group related tabs automatically.

good idea +1
 
Thanks!

Althoguth, it maybe more appropriate to call it 'Nested Tabs' instead of 'Hierarchal Tabs'.

Meh, same difference I guess.
 
No thanks.

I don't see why people need so many damn tabs open. I can usually get everything done with 4 or 5. The rest is for bookmarks.

Eh, for me it depends. I would spend a lot more time navigating if I was limited to 4 or 5 tabs. I keep that many windows open generally. (Windows are for separating tasks, a lot of my work is researching things on the web).

So, I keep one window for general non-work things, reading forums here, there wherever. Sometimes there are several tabs open for a specific site for various threads or subforums I want to keep an eye on. When I google, the original search result page is a tab, then I open tabs for the various interesting results that I find. I abuse tabs fully. As I type this, I probably have 50 or so open.

I keep another window for documents on a certain thing I'm doing at the moment (generally specifications).

With that said, I'm not so much in favour of this idea. Anywhere I would utilize the hierarchy like that, I'd be more likely to open up another window for it.

I often have 200+ tabs open in a given workspace (243 at the moment). I spend a lot of time away from internet access, so OW's ability to keep track of what I had open last time is a big boon. I can load up quite a bit of reading material for various projects and work on it during what would otherwise be unproductive time. For example, I've got 40 or 50 different tabs right now full of recipes that I'm contemplating for dinner over the next month or two. Probably 80% of them won't be used, so I don't want to go to the trouble of saving them to disk and having to clean them up later. I switched to OmniWeb primarily because I like the way it handles this working style.

I tend to organize my tabs by using separate windows. Maybe I'm just not imaginative enough to see how wonderful this proposal would be, but I'm not sure I'd get a lot of mileage out of some sort of automatic organization scheme.

And you got a TB of RAM in your Mac … how? ;)

I like the idea, but alas OW is already a memory hog with only 15 tabs open.
