Tab Candy organization for Chrome? It’s called Tab Sugar. (thenextweb.com)

This looks like it could be a decent clone of the Firefox Panorama feature, but it seems very buggy on my system (6.0.472.53 beta on Ubuntu Linux 64-bit) as of now.

    * The previews don't render but maybe 20% of the time.
    * Clicking a page does not take me to the tab but about half the time.
    * Tabs in Chrome do not show/hide based on which group I'm in, like Firefox Panorama.
Hopefully it is just my system being weird -- has anyone else on HN tried this extension?


It's improving quickly, but it's not stable yet. Even Aza Raksin, who headed up the Mozilla Tab Candy/Panorama project, couldn't get this extension to work with Chrome. http://twitter.com/azaaza/status/23855793058


Very neat. Still can't change key bindings in Chrome like I can in Opera. I want to be able to modify key key combinations-like change 'focus address bad' to command+d. I have yet to find an extension or configuration in Firefox/Chrome/Safari that will allow that level of customization.


The comments on that post are deplorable.

oh boy Firefox are in trouble. Where are they going to find their USP from?

Uh hello? Chrome got a subpar copy of a Firefox innovation and you're saying Firefox is in trouble because of it?

heh in the video the user is using windows!

Self-explanatory.
