I guess I'm looking for a "unique tab" extension that would behave as follows:
- I open a new tab and type in "mail.google.com"
- It looks for an already open tab with that url
- If found, it takes me to that tab and closes the current one.
It should also work the same if I follow a link, like to google calendar - to find the existing calendar tab, rather than a new one.
Basically, I find it easier and faster to open a new tab rather than find an existing one. Which means I have like 4 calendar tabs open. Which means every alarm goes off 4 times...
Perfect! (It does behave the way I described - closes the new tab, redirects to the old one). You have to tell it each site that should be unique. – Steve Bennett – 2011-02-02T08:36:45.893
1this is far from perfect. you have to electively say for each tab that you want it to be a singleton - and plus if you have multiple windows open it isn't able to jump to another window. it just closes the tab as you type the url. it this not technically possible? someone needs to solve this problem – Simon – 2014-04-19T23:51:16.667
