I regularly have to declare tab bankruptcy. By which I mean I bookmark the several hundred still-open tabs in a folder named after the date of said declaration.

…you know, in case I, uh, want to continue to work through them some other day... :|



Isn’t that the history feature ? :)


Well chrome only stores history for 90 days. And firefox has some mystery algorithm if you don't override it. But even if that gets fixed, raw history is a horrible mess compared to saving just the tabs that stayed open.

Also a bookmark folder is itself inferior to actually saving tabs with the per-tab history intact.
