Hi All, This is my first post to this group as I just had a idea, and am putting it forward to the community for a possible feature for chromium, this is a feature which has been lacking in all browsers in my opinion, here it is :
Scenario: Say you are busy at work doing some research on the net on using pointers or stack overflows for instance, when you realize it is time to go home, what do you do ? Current Day (Assumes internet connection available at home) : Get bookmarks for all the open pages currently open in your browser (Firefox/IE/Opera/Safari/Chrome etc etc ), transport these bookmarks home somehow (email, flashstick) etc. Open all the sites using the bookmarks wait for pageloads and continue further. Problem With Current Day Scenario : Well in my situation: I live in a low bandwidth country where internet connections are EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE (South Africa) and they are slow and we are capped at ridiculously low amounts of data transfer so opening large amounts of pages from links are slow and time consuming. I also like reading especial creating threads of pages with related content in one browser session in firefox/chrome this forms threads of research or thought this is a cumbersome experience, I am sure that other people do the same. Feature Suggestion : Is it possible to purge the current open browser session into a compressed (LZMA) file and saving it to a local drive (flashtick/ external HDD) and save this session to "Pointer_StackOverflow.gcs" (gcs extention -> google chrome session) transport this home and open the session file with google chrome ie, the page loads are near instantaneous since it is from local disk and continue my "thread of thought/research" reading at home without the assumption that the person has an internet connection. I know this is a mundane problem in countries where high bandwidths are not a problem but in the 3rd world this is a serious problem in my opinion. Like I said this is a problem I have and what I think would make a very good feature for a next generation browser also fulfilling one of the cornerstone principles of free software, the fact that it is free. :-) Hope this is received as it was intended when writing. -Scipher --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chromium-discuss" group.
