Quake3World

I've been using the near-identical firefox extension that sprang up shortly after the feature was announced, and predicted it was a useless feature that had barely any use beyond flashiness.

Well it's been installed for a few months. I think I've used it about 3 times in that period, just because I noticed the icon.

GG useless IE feature.

Anyone else?

Useless features create jobs!

what feature is this exactly?

viamatic foxpose - gives you a preview of all your open tabs (or what ns said).

i've used it quite a bit - but that's because i've got a habit of opening lots and lots of tabs while i'm trying to find about something, and then losing the most relevant one.

Produces a tab containing small preview images of all of the tabs you currently have open.

The functional issue is obvious I think - if you have millions of tabs open, the thumbnails get smaller, so finding the tab you want in the mire (which would initially seem like the point of the feature) actually becomes more difficult as the need to use it increases.

The tabs themself suffer from the same issue of course, but identifying sites via their text labels or icons never posed an issue for me.

The only time I go over 20 tabs or so is when I'm surfing porn.

but it saves you 3 clicks !

only a moron would use a mouse for anything other then games...

I enjoy your offhanded comments in threads, and usually get a little chuckle out of them. I just thought you should know.

This one in particular reminded me of the sidebar one-liners on the Colbert Report while he's talking.

i thought it looked completely useless from the very beginning.

you plan on sharing the link?

Oh right that feature. I had the extension installed as well and used it a whopping 0 times. Quite right Foo.
