Hey guys,
I had this thread idea for a while now. Here's a shot at it:
We all use multiple tabs in our browser window (I hope). Sometimes they can pile up to pretty high amounts, and even tell a story about ourselves. I'm wondering if you would be up for sharing a list of all the tabs you have open right now, for entertainment purposes/curiosity. Here, I'll go first:
(note: remember to censor accordingly)
1) Hieroglyphic Luwian: an introduction with original texts - Annick Payne - Google Books
2) Plato, Crito, section 45b
3) Greek Word Study Tool
4) Gmail - Inbox (441) - xmyemailaddressx
5) Disney princes grace the cover of men's magazines
6) The world's oldest "Yo mama" joke is over 3,500 years old
7) Send in your stories about the world's worst roommate
8) The Cutting Edge of Ordinary: Simple Baby Bok Choy
9) Let's Play Baldur's Gate [18] Beregost - YouTube
10) xprivatex (sorry guys)
11) The Enneagram Institute Discussion Board
12) Azalea's Dress up Dolls - Regency Hero Dress up Game
13) Why does someone have to die? - YouTube
14) 4 Eidb eyes only :: Sprucebeer.jpg picture by xmex
There you have it. Not quite twenty tabs for me this time. |

lol. Currently have the stacking theory on hold, due to a recent curve ball in thinking.
Three instincts obviously aren't enough.
I dunno, I usually have more than just three tabs. I've already magically brought up two extra ones.

Exactly for me too, Astral. What is your stacking? I am sp/sx. Just curious as to if your type/stacking predicts how many tabs you have.

I've usually got at least six tabs working. This is strange.

I actually use it on the occasion, but usually it's for valuable resources only that I'll bookmark it. You know, a page I'll want to visit over and over again. My bookmark list is maybe only 4 or 5 items long. I'm sure I could easily end up with a mess of bookmarks if I started saving everything, lol... |

The purpose was to get an overview of what kind of webuser you are. If it makes you feel better, a lot of the interesting tabs I had open were from a 7 friend who kept sending me a bunch of interesting material to read. I left them open because I wasn't done with them. See, I'm not as interesting as I appear. Usually I have many more tabs open from academic journals and the like, and boring stuff from school classes.
1) Mozilla start page ('cause I'm weird like that)
I want to ask you why. You just think it's nice to have it open, or is there a real reason behind it? I know that my mozilla start page also has a 'restore windows' button on it. Sometimes I like to not restore all tabs I lost and just open new ones, a way to separate two periods of my life, and also a way to gain an instant fresh start to my browsing.
I'll have to google that oldest yo mama joke 
Haha, you should. It's an interesting article to read.

I have the added security with firefox (the browser that I use) that it can retrieve my tabs if ever the program crashes.

Thanks. Wasn't sure if it would fly, but seems to have don a good job. Too bad I go MIA a bit too frequently.
I usually open multiple windows instead of tabs.
I've never known if/what difference it would make if I opened one window with multiple tabs.
Perhaps you (or someone else) can explain that to me.
I keep much fewer than 20 open, tho I know of people who claim to have dozens & dozens.
I think I end up on average with more than a dozen, so that's why I made the numbering in the thread's tile so high. Of course, it sounded better too, given the obvious (though slight, in my case) hyperbole. Mmm, alliterations.
The difference between tabs and windows... well, what I like about tabs is that you have only one window open for all the webpages open on your browser application. I like that because it's neat and doesn't clutter the rest of your computer. I remember back in the early 2000s when my browser didn't have tabs. I would rack up so many open windows, you couldn't see them all on the bottom task bar. I think tabs might actually take up less space in terms of RAM usage, but I don't know since I'm a tad clueless when it comes to certain computer workings. Personally, I like the feeling of having 20 tabs open. It feels like I'm 'forever rich with important knowledge', usually since I picked all the pages I've got open.
1) my Freecell window - for taking breaks while at the computer. I do the games in numerical order. I'm up to 7511.
I started this "project" while I still had my old 98se and there were only 32,000 games to do.
With my XP there are a million, so I prolly won't get thru them all.
I never played Freecell but my mom did.
I started playing it after she died as a way to keep a remembrance/connection with her.
I have a 9 friend who is/was addicted to freecell. She has been doing the same thing you have, but last time I checked she was only at game 940 or so. You're clearly ahead of her. Heh heh.

Big, big DITTO.
Haha, story of my life.
I closed most of my tabs the other day. But then I counted them again recently and I already had 11 open once again. There's usually a feeling of panic inside when I find something interesting and I can't assimilate it right away for some reason (because there's too much to read/explore!)

I think I'd make a good researcher of sorts, because I love sifting through information for the most relevant ideas. |
