Today's Theme: Tabs in Chrome

Use Tab Search 

Click the little arrow in the upper right corner of Chrome. Use the search bar to type some keywords to find the tab you're seeking or scroll through the list of open tabs.

Use Tab Groups

Right-click (or two-finger click on a trackpad) a tab and select Add Tab to New Group. Enter a name, and if you choose, a color. Drag tabs to join the group, or right-click a tab and select the tab group. Click here for more info.

Pin Tabs

Right-click a tab and select Pin. Pinned tabs are on the left and only show the site's icon. I like this option because I can't accidentally click the x to close the tab.

Bring back a tab
Speaking of... If you accidentally close a tab or window, you can open it again using a keyboard shortcut:
Windows & Chromebooks: Ctrl + Shift + t
Mac: ⌘ + Shift + t

For more information, check out Use tabs in Chrome in the Google Chrome Help Center.

So, how many tabs do you have open?
