After trying out several tab-organizing tools, I have come to appreciate and stick with Skipper. (formerly known as Skeema).
Skipper acts as a “home base” for browser-based tabs allowing you to easily aggregate, organize, prioritize, annotate and act on browser information.
The way I organize my tabs:
- I PIN my work tabs, the ones I use on an everyday basis + I use a tab suspender so all my work tabs aren’t slowing down my PC
- All other tabs are open, usually between 3-5 tabs are “work-in-progress” and waiting to be attended.
- I currently use Skipper to save my to-do tabs that need to be returned to and I use it as a folder to aggregate materials regarding vacation plans.
If you haven’t used a tab organizer yet, I suggest you start small and grow slowly meaning don’t open more than 3 folders/projects and make use of all it’s features before adding more tabs.
- Automatically saves and closes tabs you haven’t used in a while, browser stays lean without losing tasks or content. When ready, visit your to-do folder or look for tabs in “All Saved Tabs” or in the AI section that automatically files into categories.
- Web Clipper – save and close a tab for later use, pick the right folder for the tab, I recommend not over 3 folders for new users.
- Notetaking – add remarks to your tabs or clipped items for later use.
- Share folders – after creating the right collection of resources, one click to share it with your team.
- Effortless Switching – closing out one project or client and quickly opening all tabs for your next client is seamless and simple.
