Introduction

GoodTaber works as a manager for you numerous chrome tabs. The goal is to make you navigation through tabs easily and efficiently.

Design

GoodTaber consists of two components, the foreground popup and the background.

Popup

The popup is responsible for the representation of tabs. When you open the extension by clicking or shortcut, the popup will find all the chrome tabs and present them to you. Then it will do different works according to your instructions, such as searching, sorting, and rearranging.

Background

The background works silently. It monitors your activities in the browser and provide you useful information, such as the number of tabs.

Integration

GoodTaber is a browser action extension for Chrome. It has a main icon in the main Google Chrome toolbar, to the right of the address bar. It can be seen and opened anytime when Chrome is running. The installation and uninstallation of GoodTaber is under the Chrome extension management, so it's easy and safe.

New API

To record the sequence of tabs being used, we design a new API, chrome.widget.getRecentTabs. The API keeps a sequence of tab id and update the sequence every time a tab is activated or remove. There is a test version of GoddTaber that uses this API and provide a new sorting function. You can download the patch file and the extension in the downloads wiki page.
