yes, but WHY?
How many tabs have you got open on your browser right now?

My uni webmail is always open. It auto refreshes so I don't need to reload.
Everything else, well I find it suits my style of browsing rather well to have all the sites I use several times a day open all the time. I click on a tab and hit refresh. It's marginally less annoying for me than opening a new tab then either going to bookmarks and opening the page from fresh or bringing up speed dial and clicking on one of them.
It works for me. I couldn't give a shit what works for others.

Let me change the title and breathe new life back into this thread!
As for me: I've currently got eight Firefox browser windows open with a total of around 50 tabs, plus Chrome with five tabs open.

Three.
But then (a) I've only recently got back and (b) Safari can be a right memory hog if you don't quit and re-open it regularly. Or at least it used to be; maybe more recent versions are better but I still have the instinct.
On my first PC after graduating, I used to regularly run Opera 5 on Linux with two or three dozen tabs open - and that machine had far lower specs than my current netbook. But then I was on dialup so used to open things in new tabs, then stay on the same one until they'd loaded, and didn't like closing tabs because I'd just have to reload the things later.

I did my usual period block bookmarking and I seem to have 1,213 tabs open in one browser.
Fuck knows how many in the others.

Thank you for your attention to this matter!
I bet 1,212 of those are results from google image searches for seagulls.

I've switched to DuckDuckGo on my phone because it nukes tabs after an hour

You need OneTab extension for Google Chrome and Firefox - save up to 95% memory and reduce tab clutterLook away now Sasaferrato

No need - having two browsers running with all those tabs is only using 7GB of RAM.
