I use chrome as my primary browser right now and I came across a feature that makes bookmarking large groups of tabs easy. It came to me as kind of an abstract thing that I didn't even realize I was doing. Let's say I was doing some research on Wikipedia and ended up drilling down a long link chain, but I had to put off the reading of all the articles I had discovered until later. So what I start with usually looks ike a tab strip like the following:
I don't want to bookmark all the tabs I have open, because maybe I was working on something unrelated so I want to isolate these tabs. The first thing to do is make sure I am on one 'end' of the tabs I want to save by clicking on it. Next, hold down shift (just like you were trying to select multiple things in a desktop control) and then click the other 'end' of the tabs you want to save:
It might not be obvious at first but at least with the skin I am using the tabs are a different color than the ones not selected. Next I click and drag the tab that I am currently viewing and tear these tabs off. Chrome will give a slightly transparent window to indicate this fact:
Next right click on any one of the tabs and click bookmark all tabs and save it as the bookmark of your choice!
I didn't realize you could do this before now and so this will help me a lot when I am trying to separate a distraction or topic from other tabs (you can also drag and drop tabs on the top strip to sort if you haven't tried that).
Hope this helps someone!
