CNET Editors' review

by: CNET staff on January 05, 2009

This handy little add-on falls under the category of tools you never knew you needed, but find extremely useful once you try it. Tab Scope conveniently lets you navigate all of your tabs without having to click back and forth between them.

When you hover your mouse over a tab, Tab Scope displays a small preview window that represents the tab's current Web page. Just like a browser, the preview window contains navigational buttons for moving forward and backward, refreshing the page, zooming in, and stopping the page load. The Options menu gives you control over the window size, the wait time for the pop-up preview window to appear, and the alignment of the window. The program worked flawlessly, and allowed us to manage all of our tabs without having to leave our current page.

Students and anyone doing Web research will find this add-on an absolute necessity. We highly recommend it for all tab happy users.
