Post #365,572 by Another Scott 10/26/12 12:59:12 PM Reply	Heh. My workflow is to open a browser window in the morning (restoring my previous tabs) then open additional tabs as needed. Over time, they build up to some steady state. If one doesn't get used, I eventually close it. I occasionally save the remainders to my bookmarks and might start reasonably fresh after that. I don't read each of them multiple times every day. Sometimes special occasions demand more - e.g. I have 5 WeatherUnderground tabs open at the moment: 1) Local weather; 2) Local Radar; 3) Regional Radar; 4) Hurricane Sandy; 5) Jeff Masters's WunderBlog on Sandy. If one has enough RAM, one might as well use it all. :-) Cheers, Scott.

Window 1: 1) The manual page for git talking about branches that I'm keeping around until I need it again 2) The parse.com data browser, which I check periodically for updates to my app's server data 3) A tutorial on writing Flex unit tests that I keep meaning to get back to 4) A picture of my parents' old house from when I was a boy that I keep meaning to show to my son 5) A YouTube of "Rama's Great" from Sita Sings The Blues: http://www.youtube.c...tch?v=-HugqxcODjQ 6) The home page for Sita Sings The Blues, open from a G+ post I made about the film and which I keep forgetting to close: http://www.sitasingstheblues.com/ 7) A Google search page on Sita Sings The Blues, ditto 8) The Starling Framework doc page on bitmap fonts, probably don't need it open at this point 9) A Surface RT pricing article I might write a post about 10) A Starling forum post about bitmap font performance, probably don't need it open at this point 11) An Actionscript 3 API reference window that I keep open to look things up occasionally 12) A help page detailing how to convert an Apple certificate into a .p12 file that I used a week ago, probably don't need it open either 13) A Starling native overlay forum post that I don't want to forget about 14-16) Three pages on how to fork/pull/contribute to Github, because I was doing that earlier this week. I might close those. 17) A Starling forum post on mipmaps and ATF image format 18) The Starling API reference that I keep open to look things up occasionally 19-21) Three stackoverflow.com posts I was considering writing an answer for 22-37) Various windows about SAP and mobile technology (see note below) 38) A newegg.com window with some RAM I was considering buying for my MacPro ($99 for 4G) 39) A Starling forum post about problems with resetting the Tween class 40) IWETHEY 41) The cNet article AnotherScott posted about Chrome tabs :-) Window 2: 1-2) A pair of Google docs I'm editing as a favor to a friend. Window 3: 1) Apples iTunesConnect, the application management page 2) Google Play's developer report page 3) Amazon's App Store developer report page 4) B&N NOOK app store developer report page Window 4: 1) A Glimpse Into The Meditating Brain: http://earthvision.i...itatingbrain.html Window 5: 1-7) Various topics I may post on G+, including cats. Note: My usual research method involves performing a search in Google, opening all of the interesting pages in a new tab, then going through each of those pages and doing the same thing, then running back through all of the now-opened tabs and reading them all. I'm looking into SAP and mobile integration for a possible project through one of my companies. Regards, -scott Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson.

Four. :-) When reading a web forum, I open up a subforum and then Control-Click on all threads, resulting in 10-20 or more open tabs for reading, and I close 'em as I finish each one.

Post #365,595 by Andrew Grygus 10/26/12 8:10:22 PM Reply	Yes, but that's a reasonable number, and . . . . . for very specific reasons. I don't use tabs, not because I hate tabs, but because I usually need two or more windows open for viewing in direct comparison, and very rarely more than four. Different kind of work - I'm not monitoring anything.
