What makes you happy? #50

I usually keep a lot of tabs open in whatever browser I'm using. Probably too many, really. I've seen some bloggers do link round-ups as a way of finally dealing with their tabs -- if they've kept it open, it must be interesting, right?

Yeah, no.

But as a result, sometimes I accidentally close a tab just by clicking on it, and I don't know exactly what the page was.

"Recently closed tabs" links on browsers are an amazing thing. Oops, didn't mean to close that?  No problem.

I'm not sure who rolled it out first -- Chrome? Firefox? Probably not Explorer, but who knows? But I'm grateful that they did.

  2. Thanks, Yogesh! Yes, I've seen that, too, but a lot of my tabs just aren't that interesting... Right now, I have GMail, Google Drive plus four documents, my calendar, a timer, the help page for Outlook, Goodreads, and Amazon.com. Too many tabs, too little content!
