If you go back to your parent company archives, you will find that the internet only dial up service they bought in 1996, GNN, actually had tabbed browser.  The service was essentially scrapped by AOL when they began offering an "all you can eat" plan for dial-up.<br><br>back to lucking.....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[midgary]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 21st 2009 9:29AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Beginning of the End for Tabbed Browsing?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</guid><description><![CDATA[I believe NetCaptor, a browser shell for IE had tabbed browsing before Opera.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Galley]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 21st 2009 9:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Beginning of the End for Tabbed Browsing?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</guid><description><![CDATA[Sorry but when I browse the web I usually have anywhere from 10-30 tabs open at a time.

I don't call it ADD so much as I do "finish this first, then do this later".]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carrie]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 27th 2009 4:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Beginning of the End for Tabbed Browsing?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</guid><description><![CDATA[I typically use tabbed browsing because every IE session I launch takes forever to come up on the screen. Also viewing web links in tabs helps compare the same information on the same browser. Unless some other method is invented to replace the browser, I doubt tabbed browsing will go away. Now cell phones and limited devices will have a growing up stage and will need to be fed Gerber-net, till they become as powerful as laptops. The technology is here with no economy to drive it yet into a product. Putting an Intel Atom into a cell phone / Pda would kill the need for such contrived browsing without tabs.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 16th 2009 11:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Beginning of the End for Tabbed Browsing?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</guid><description><![CDATA[The bottleneck for mobile devices vs. tabbed browsing does not reside in the particular aspect of hardware that you're suggesting, bob. On the contrary, many devices have no problem with the speed/memory aspect of tabbed browsing (and use it, in fact, if not on such a grand scale as 30 tabs open at once, heh -- Opera and Webby being two examples). <br><br>The bottleneck, and the point of this initiative, lies in the size of the screens. It's a truly confounding problem, from a hardware design point of view, considering that you can only increase screen size by so much before you negate the integral "mobile" designation :)<br><br>So, it needs to be a software design solution.<br><br>I use a Firefox extension called "FaviconizeTab", another one called "Smart Bookmarks Bar", and a third called "IdentFavicon". The first minimizes a tab to show only it's favicon when double-clicked, and the second shows only favicons on the bookmark toolbar. The third automatically applies a random abstract favicon graphic to sites without one. I don't think this would solve the problem entirely, but I have to admit, I wish I could do a combination of these things on my PPC.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 18th 2009 3:49AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on The Beginning of the End for Tabbed Browsing?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/21/the-beginning-of-the-end-for-tabbed-browsing/</guid><description><![CDATA[This crushes me! I normally have between 30-160 tabs open at a time. I have many research projects that require me to compare multiple pieces of data, and the easiest way to do so is with tabs. Not having tabs will be a huge hindrance...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Crice7]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 21st 2009 3:52PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
