Yeah, I’m a chronic tab opener. It’s one of my ways of managing work. For example, I’ll open an email in a new tab to ensure I don’t forget to response today. Or, right now, I’m checking on the status of several projects I have in permitting at the County. As I’m crafting one report, having all of them open at one time is helpful.
I know that having gobs of windows open in Chrome can impact performance. That is countered by efficiency, in my opinion.
But, well, I’m a certain kind of geek.
