Are you one of those who has a 100s of tabs opened and you are clueless of how to find the most relevant tab now?
Are you the one clicking each tab one by one until you find what you are looking for?
I have got some really effective and to the point top 5 google chrome extensions to get the work done and make you productive.( I personally love and use them)
Let us start!
TreeStyleTab
This is my favorite and I use it daily.
As the name suggests, it is a tree-style tabbing where any tab that you open is automatically added to kind of tree and you can find it very easy later on.
e.g you are browsing your facebook feed and then you browse to someone’s profile then the link to that profile will be added under the facebook tab. That way you easily know from where you started and what was your browins pattern.
It is available on both firefox and chrome.

The Great Suspender
We all love google chrome as our daily browser, but it eats a lot of memory and that is the reason I just love this extension.
It simply suspends any google chrome tab which I am not using for last X minutes (where X is something you can configure yourself). This lets me enjoy my browsing and my system also runs like crazy.
You can also whitelist websites you never wanted to get suspended. The best part is that suspended tabs are retained even after you close the browser.
This is also available for both firefox and chrome.

TooManyTabs
What if you can simply preview each tab before clicking and getting the know if it is the one you are looking for?
Sounds interesting? Then this extension is for you.
It shows a preview of all the open tabs, and all you have to do to go to a tab is click on its preview. You can also quickly search tabs via their titles. It automatically backs up/restores active tabs to your Google Drive account. It can also categorize inactive tabs differently and suspends them.
So You getting tabs solution with a slim version of the great suspender.

SuperTabs
SuperTabs allows you to list and search current open tabs and switch to them quickly. You can search for tabs based on their titles. The number of open tabs is shown as badge counter. By selecting the title of the tabs, it will get activated.
You can navigate through the search result using Tab button and pressing Enter will activate that tab.

I love the UI of this personally and you can easily create kind of folders to the tabs you visit more often. It is like workspaces for developers.
