First, you probably already know the feature that most browsers have where Command-clicking a link causes a new window to be opened for the link. Or you might have visited pages that have a list of links that open a new window when you click on each. This is handy if you want to load a bunch of pages and then read them one at a time. Now, imagine being able to have these links open as a new tab in the current window. Add the option to have the tab open in the background and you can click 20 links or more without having to do any navigation. When you've got all your tabs loaded, you click on them one at a time to see the already-loaded page. When you're through with a tab, simply type command-w to close it. That's tabbed browsing. Tab groups are even better. Internet Explorer lets you define toolbar favorites and I'm sure everyone here has a few. It also lets you define folders for grouping favorites together. You can place folders in the toolbar for easy access. I have a couple of these in my toolbar with which every morning I select all the items one by one. Some may lead to further links and I deal with these with the aforementioned command-click. It works pretty good. Tabbed groups mix the two concepts together. You define a group of favorites that you want to load *simultaneously*. Click on the group in the toolbar and Chimera loads all of the bookmarks each in it's own tab. Hopefully, I've explained all of that well enough for you to understand. Of course, you can always go to Mozilla.org and try Chimera out for yourself. I can't tell you how much easier it makes surfing sites like Fark or MacSurfer. -Mick -- -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
