Ask HN: What browser tabs do you always have open?
As I settle into more and more of a routine with my daily life working from home, I find that I keep a handful of websites always open in a separate browser window. Right now for me these are:
Hootsuite (sometimes Seesmic now)
Google Docs
Gmail
Evernote
Wordpress backend (for my WP network)
My todo app
Pivotal Tracker
I'm an avid Chrome user, but I find it is easier to have the tabs preloaded rather than opening the default page and clicking to them from there.
- trickjarrett 16y agoGmail, Workflowy, 30boxes (calendar) -- Those are my staple 3.
- steveklabnik 16y ago* localhost:3000 * localhost:9292 * news.ycombinator.com * mail.steveklabnik.com * sometimes localhost:8080 I really need to standardize my development ports.
- whalesalad 16y agovhosts + /etc/hosts ;) My work projects are blahproject.zg (as I work at a place called ZehnerGroup), personal projects are blahproject.dev. BTW, for those interested in my stack (thats what she said?) I run uWSGI locally right now for all my django stuff, proxied to Nginx. Back in the day it was apache + mod_python, then apache + mod_wsgi, but I love nginx on my local laptop as it uses almost zero memory.
- steveklabnik 16y agoYeah, or I could just change my config slightly to make them all on the same one. I'm never running more than one at a time, so vhosts seems like a bit of overkill.
- nano81 16y agoFacebook, Gmail, Grooveshark and my site, diPoll
- ronnier 16y agoI can tell you what tab I never leave open, anything that requires me to be authenticated with Google. I'm probably being paranoid, but I'm afraid to remain logged in to google in the event that somehow a site would manage to read the google auth cookie and gain access to my email.
- kineticac 16y agogmail, news.ycombinator.com, fanvibe.com, localhost:3000, and a million google search results
- mindcrime 16y agoStuff I seem to always have open: GMail Hacker News Reddit Twitter localhost:8080
- kevinherron 16y ago* Gmail * Google reader * Company's public forum * Trac * Cruise (Continuous Integration) * Internal wiki * localhost:8088
- andrewjshults 16y agoGmail + Google Apps for frid.ge (these are normally pinned in that order) HN frid.ge + frid.dev + our staging server assembla (generally the changeset stream + tickets) My wanna.do list (side project of mine, which also serves as my todo list) Also, I generally have the symfony and doctrine documentation open and sometimes php.net as well
- veb 16y agophpMyAdmin, GitHub, Google and HN.
- ctrand 16y agoAlways: gmail, piwik, dealush (my site) Usually: localhost:3000, sugarcrm, redmine, basecamp, facebook, twitter (both for work of course...) and... HN :D
- hasenj 16y agoUsually gmail and facebook, and one blank tab. I don't know why, but I like to have a blank tab :/
- fezzl 16y agoFacebook certainly.
