Tabs on the left - works great
I've been using tabs on the left rather than the top - see below: Firefox (circled) and Windows TaskBar. I quite like it - it's readable, and it uses the space efficiently (especially when you have a couple dozen tabs open).

No! Tabs are the enemy!
Everything I might want to switch to should be an equal citizen as far as Alt-Tab is concerned. Gmail hidden in the mass of Firefox tabs. No way!
That said, at least this way you have some hope of finding a tab. But you're rearranging the deckchairs on the Titanic I tell you :)

Ah - interesting point, Tom. I was of the same mind once - no tabs but separate windows. And it worked well; I think it got a bit slow on my computer at the time. I should try it again.

Yeah it's a great extension. And it works fine with TabMixPlus!

Hi Jonathan,
How do you get your Windows Explorer tab bar to stack vertically like that? I'd like to try it that way, but I can't figure out how to do it.
Thanks!

Hi Anon - Simply drag the taskbar to the left.
If you want the tabs ordered alphabetically, you can buy Button Boogie 2 online for about $10. Unfortunately you must manually order the tabs alphabetically, so it's a bit inconvenient. But you only have to do it once (or no more than a few times).
