CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
Tabbed browsing is one of Firefox's best features, but after you've opened a dozen tabs or so, it's easy to lose track of them all. That's where Reveal comes in. Simply press F2 or Alt tilde, and this clever Firefox extension displays thumbnail images of your tabs. From there, you can jump to a given tab by clicking its thumbnail or selecting it with the keyboard. Reveal also provides a search bar that allows you to quickly filter tabs with keywords. Additional options let you set thumbnail dimensions and the maximum number of thumbnails. The images pop up instantly on a modern PC. For casual users, Reveal may be little more than eye candy, but for hard-core surfers who keep 15 or 20 tabs going at once, it's a great way to save time.Publisher's description
From Michael Wu :Reveal allows you to see thumbnails of pages in your session history and quickly find the page you want. Reveal also includes a magnifying glass to help you see everything. Try it now - it comes with a quick tour of all features. Screenshots do not fully capture the experience of using Reveal.

Cons: Will undoubtedly slow down older computers, seems bloated due to the huge amount of features

"Useless since it does not work on Version 2"
Pros: Nothing!
Cons: Why continue to tout an extension that will not work past Firefox 1 .5? Firefox will soon be releasing version 3!!
