Ahh yes. Multiple-tabbed browsing truly rocks! I just wish I had Multiple
eyes also to see 'em all at the same time. Whoever invented the concept
should be given a Nobel peace prize. The peace of mind that you will be able
to switch tabs for different websites is sooooo convenient!

Now, why on earth does someone have multiple tabs? Too many tabs mean you
ain't working! That was mentioned by one of my friends. If you remember
Scot, the caucasian guy in one of the Mapalad meets showing off the new Palm
TX at the coffee bean in Greenbelt.

He he he

Ooops! Off-topic

I'll shut up now...

To add to that: I haven't really seen any highly significant bandwidth
penalty when I tunnel my connection through SSH, although admittedly, I
sometimes get very high latencies, especially when my connection is
swamped (for example, when I have several browser windows/tabs open and
active, and the tunnel is also being used). YMMV, I guess.
