Interviewed by CNN on 17/12/2009 14:52, Phillip Jones told the world:

I just never seen a use for them. Usually when I visit a site I progress
from one window to the next I don't need to switch back an forth. I go
to point  a to b to c and so on. I don't go to a, b.c,a,d,b,c,a and so on.

Well, not all sites favor linear browsing. Some are organized more like a tree -- you have to go back to the "trunk" page before you get to explore another "branch." Which is annoying in one-window browser, and may be easy to get lost.

In those cases, I tend to let one window/tab stationary on the "trunk" page and explore the sidelines in separate tabs. That way, when I want to change branches, I just close the current tab -- the main page is already loaded.

Another good way I use tabs is with multi-tab bookmarks. For instance, I'm a comics buff; I visit a number of comics and webcomics every day. Instead of going site by site, I use a multi-bookmark to open all of them at once.

I have fairly good bandwidth here but high latency (I'm in Brazil, but most sites I visit are in the U.S.). So loading several sites at once ends up saving me a lot of time.
