And this is actually barely anything compared to how it usually looks. I've crashed my browser from having too many tabs open before :x

[Zai☆liner]

Mines the same, except I'm using firefox and have the colour of my tabs being blue.
I always have tons of tabs opened for the Starbound Brony clan, being a clan co-leader requires a lot of attention for my clan

I only have one open at a time for the forums.

I don't think I ever exceed 5 tabs when I browse stuff. I've heard that you should avoid opening too many tabs in Chrome. Unlike Internet Explorer (lol) and some other browsers, each tab counts as a new process and will slow your computer down.

I usually head to a section, "scroll-click" thread links (opens the link in a new tab), browse said thread and close the tab when I'm done. Rinse and repeat.

With each tab counting as a process if one tab crashes it will not take down the whole browser with it. I have had that many tabs open once and I have not notice any slow down. Well probably that is due to the fact that I have a good cpu and plenty of ram

I've had around 10+ tabs open at the same time in chrome without any noticable slow down. My standard amount of tabs are around 5-6 and it works just fine.

I usually have only one or maybe two tabs open per website. For forums and other sites with a lot of information in different places I use qbicfeet's method of opening in new tabs (except it's ctrl-clicking for me). I don't need to do it on this forum though, camping at the main page is a good way to keep track of most new content.

Use middle-mouse click, it's easier.

I personally sometimes have 20+ tabs open, but at that point I usually start closing some.

I use a touchpad so I'm not sure if I can. I'm so used to using ctrl anyways so I'll probably stick to that.
I have a mouse too but I only connect it when I'm doing serious gaming.

You should see mine when I am downloading music to DJ with, I get anywhere from 25 to 50 tabs it gets insane

Strange. Those times Chrome has crashed on me all tabs went down. But the overall slowdown is pretty noticeable when I have a lot of resource-intensive stuff such as flash games or YouTube videos going on, at least on my laptop.

[Antarus]

I actually am past 20 tabs open at once at the moment. Not how I have the same page opened sometimes.

I can believe that the whole Chrome browser crash all together more often on a laptop. I have a laptop that I use for college work on my web design degree so I have browsers up a lot and they do crash on occasion, at least now days it real easy to restore your tabs to back where you are at.

Most of the time normally I have one tab crash then I just reload that tab in no time where as IE takes down the whole session of tabs which mean more time to reopen the tabs.

[BlueTiger6001]

I usually only have 5-6 max tabs up at once. This usually happens when I'm browsing for something hard to find (I open multiple result at once on Google if I cannot find it super easily) or if I'm foruming :/

[7UR7L3]

Ya, that looks exactly the same as mine, except I have a black theme for chrome, and generally have at least 30 tabs open at a time (I do get up to around 60-70 sometimes though).

It gets to the point where text no longer displays on the tabs themselves so I get stuck ctrl-tab ing through all of them trying to find the one that I want.

[Aristaeus]

I've got 16 at the moment, plus another 25 or so at home. And just before I came here my friend was remarking on my huge amount of tabs.
