Pinning Your Tabs – Google Chrome Feature

28 06 2011

Since it is holidays in Queensland (AUS) I have decided to spend some time catching up on some podcasts, especially my favourite, The EdTech Crew. If you haven’t tapped into this great resource, it is definitely one of the best podcasts in the area of edtech out there, and Australian as well. Anyway, while listening to the interview with Tom Barrett I heard mention that you could “pin” tabs in Google Chrome to look at later. Now I am not sure about you but when I listen to a podcast or attend a webinar I often end up with so a massive list of links , some that I want to quickly check and others that I want time to check at the end of the session. The thing I like about pinning is that I can quickly pin resources to the side that look interesting and need more time to look at at a later time.

To pin a tab in Google, it’s as simple as right clicking on the tab that you want to pin and select Pin Tab. The tab will then become a small tab (only the picture showing) on the left hand side of the currently open tabs.

Definitely a useful feature that I will be using more and more.
