OneTab developer here: thanks for all your suggestions, I'll be working on them :) A few FAQs: 1. The OneTab tab persists even if you close your web browser. 2. If you ever close your OneTab tab, this doesn't lose your tabs. You can always get it back by clicking the blue extension icon. 3. Your tabs are never sent to our servers unless you press the button to 'share as a web page'.

In what scenarios can I lose my list? What happens if I click it, close it's list tab, open some new tabs and click it again? Does the old list get overwritten? Is there any way to get it back?

  It's a pushdown stack of consolidated tabs.

  You will never lose your list. If you store multiple sets of tabs, they will appear as "tab groups" in OneTab. If you accidentally close your OneTab tab, it will reappear when you click the blue extension icon or when you restart your web browser.

Love it. Just used it to conveniently share a web page of 76+ freely available newspaper archives with fellow researchers who are helping me with a project. This is solving an immediate problem for me. I love it. Thanks!

Does it only store the GET information or will it store a POST search request as well?

  It stores the URLs of your open tabs, including any GET requests. It does not store POST data.

Thanks a lot for this! Just wanted to point out something and maybe make a suggestion: I had six windows open each with some tabs related to a specific task. Used OneTab on one window and then tried to use it on another and it looks like the window just closed. Took me a minute to release the OneTab tab was on another window and another to find the right window. Not sure if this needs to be fixed or anything but maybe allowing a OneTab tab on each open window would be less confusing. As for the suggestion, it would be nice to be able to give each tab group a name instead of just showing the number of tabs. Could be useful on the shared web page as well. Thanks again!

Just found a bug. Opening a new tab by holding Control instead of right click->new tab opens the page, decreases the tab count in that group, but leaves the entry on the page. Fixed with a refresh.
