found yourself using tabs to create some part of the interface. I'm no

css hack that numbers the tabs in Firefox:

Approaches for the too-many-tabs problem
Approaches for the too-many-tabs problem
12/02/2003 01:27 AM
I've seen various, slightly differing solutions to the
too-many-tabs-to-fit problem recently. Amazon does a "more tabs" thing
at the right, the new AOL has an embedded tab scrolling thing (the
tabs that are not embedded don't scroll, thus allowing for a selection
of more important tabs that are always visible), and SAP has a
scrolling tab solution without the tabs that stay (couldn't find a
screenshot...). Point to other solutions in the comments and I'll add
screenshots.
It seems like the too-many-tabs problem is slowly coalescing
towards a standard solution for websites.
I've seen the Mac solution below being used on a weblog at one
point, but I can't find it anymore. Anyone?

12/11/2003 09:40 AMSearching the Invisible Tabshttp
://searchenginewatch.com/searchday/article.php/3115131 Tired of wading through thousands -- possibly millions -- of results
to your Web searches? How would it be if search engines offered lists
of category tabs -- so you could confine your search to relevant Web
sites? Too restrictive, too cumbersome (after all, how many categories
would there need to be)? Well then, how about invisible tabs --
behind-the-scenes functions that would automatically categorize your
query and deliver results within that category? AskJeeves and others
already do it to a degree. Example: Test AskJeeves against Google for
"pictures of DNA." AskJeeves delivers images; Google offers a list of
URLs. "It's not rocket science to see your query and decide that it
makes sense to push the invisible image tab for you. But the change it
produces, and perceived relevance to me, is dramatic," says
SearchEngineWatch.com editor Danny Sullivan. To avoid frustrating
searchers by, say, returning shopping lists instead product reviews,
the search engine might come back with questions formatted as
listings: "What would you like to do? Show me prices for this product
from merchants across the Web; Show me product reviews from across the
Web; Show me general matching content from across the Web."
IE Tabs Suck Memory Too
IE Tabs Suck Memory Too
06/17/2005 04:33 PMAdam Stiles notes that Microsoft's IE Tabs Suck Memory like there's no
tomorrow: I never considered the possibility that each IE7 tab would
have its own copy of 3rd party toolbars. But that's the direction
Microsoft has taken. What's the problem with that approach? Every time
you open a new browser tab (which tabbed browser users do much more
frequently than single-window browser users), you have to create new
instances of any 3rd-party bars. Ouch. Opening a folder of 25...

12/02/2003 01:51 AMWant to see how much more information is stored in a photo taken
with a 6+ megapixel digital SLR? I took a few test shots with my new
Digital
Rebel at the highest jpeg quality setting, which is about
3000x2000 images (not a RAW or TIFF image). Here's a
shot of my cat sitting in the sun, downsized to 750x500. And here's a
750x500 chunk of the original photo. Notice there's nary a hint of
pixelation anywhere. After years of using 1 megapixel cameras and more
recently a 3 megapixel camera, the stuff coming out of the SLR is
unbelieveable.
I haven't printed anything with this camera yet but I bet prints
from inkjets or ofoto are going to look superb given all the detail in
these images.

09/17/2004 12:28 PMThe multiple tab feature of Firefox (and Opera before it) is enough of
a reason to drop Microsoft Internet Explorer ... which, apparently,
people are doing at an increased pace, although IE still has something
like 93% of the market. But I currently have 31 instances of Firefox
open, each with 1-4 tabs. So, I'd like an extension that lists all the
open tabs in all the open instances. My dream extension would let me
jump to any of those tabs. It would also let me close them or close
multiple instances with a single click. And it would give...

Question: One of my favorite features in Safari for OS X is the little

tab instead of having to go all the way to the right side of the
window in Firefox to click the close-the-tab X there. Is there any
Firefox add-on that makes it do the same thing?

don't show up in Microsoft IE but they do in Firefox and Safari.

No, It's Not Our Own Damn Fault
No, It's Not Our Own Damn Fault
09/07/2004 01:04 AMIn response to my
rant about integrated library system vendors, Peter Rukavina says that
it's our own damn fault.
"When you outsource the administration of your data to someone else
(whether it's an OPAC vendor or a university computing department or
some guy down the street), you're also outsourcing any chance you have
at retaining ultimate control over that data.
When you buy a 'one size fits all' technology solution -- an OPAC
that's designed for, say, 'any public library' -- you're buying a
commodity, not a solution.
And you should expect to be treated as an insignificant cog by your
vendor: that's what you are. By absolving yourself of personal
responsibility over your data management in the first place, you've
already said 'we don't care enough about this to do it ourselves, so
you take care of it for us.' Is it any wonder they treat you like they
do?"
While I understand the spirit of his response and I wish that
we did have some of our best and brightest programmers
devoted to creating the one true catalog (rather than working on it as
time permits at their real job or doing it at home on their own time),
nonprofit libraries just don't have the option for which Peter
advocates.
I bought a new car this year because I was unhappy with some of the
things about my old car. Using Peter's logic, I shouldn't have
outsourced my new vehicle to a car manufacturer, but I did. I just
didn't have the time, money, or other resources to build one
myself.
Yeah, it's over the top, but you get my point. Ambulance drivers
don't make the ambulances, doctors don't make the defibrillators,
lawyers don't make the Lexis-Nexis database, and programmers use
operating systems developed by someone else (even if it's Linux).
You can't outsource everything, and libraries have to prioritize
what to expend their limited amounts of resources on. Can they build
their own cars? No, but they can certainly switch to one made by
another manufacturer.
