Firefox - Tab Sidebar addin

Tab Sidebar add in for firefox looks interesting. Time to upgrade to firefox 1.5 I think to give it a go.

‘Have you seen the Tab Preview extension? It’s good, but I didn’t like having to hover over the tab just to see what’s in it.

Have you used Adobe Acrobat with its smart display of page previews in a sidebar?

This extension sort of combines the two. You get a sidebar that displays a list of your tabs, each showing a thumbnail view along with the tab title, url and buttons to close or reload the tab.

Amongst the features this extension now has are:

  • Provides options to reload or close any tab.
  • You can move tabs around with drag and drop.
  • You can drop links and local files anywhere you like in the preview list.
  • Displays the security status of tabs.
  • Automatically refreshes the tab preview as often as you like.
  • Lets you hide the main tab bar when the sidebar is open.
  • Allows you to customise what information to display about the tabs. ‘

Note: Only works for Firefox 1.5 beta 1 and later
