If you’re a widescreen lover who’d prefer your browser take up fewer

vertical pixels and are happy to sacrifice a few horizontally to your
tabs, Chrome’s new side tabs feature (available in the Dev channel) is

You’ll notice that when you toggle side tabs, Chrome sometimes
hiccups in rendering the new view. Simply resizing your window should
redraw the interface and fix the hiccup. Firefox extension Tree Style Tab
accomplishes something similar for the Firefox crowd, but the
functionality is on its way to getting baked in by default in Chrome.
