Close the tabs you don't need at the moment without losing them. A lightweight solution to the problem of too many tabs.
-
Chrome lets you select several tabs by Shift- or Cmd/Ctrl-clicking tab handles. By taking advantage of this feature, the extension lets you cherry-pick the tabs to stash.
-
You can unstash a set of tabs to a new winow, maybe modify it, then restash it (the extension will prefill the stash name that you typed originally).
-
Stashes do not accumulate over time because unstashing automatically removes the stash from your list. You either have the window open, or you have it stashed, but not both.
-
As with bookmarks, if you use multiple desktops under the same Google account, stashes will be synced across those desktops.
-
Keyboard support (Shift+Cmd+S to open popup on Mac, Shift+Ctrl+S on Windows or Linux, select stashes with arrow keys).
