David Pierce: ‘Vertical browser tabs are better and you should use them’

After all this time, Chrome actually executed the idea pretty well. When you switch to vertical tabs, the Chrome address bar moves up to the top row of the app, which makes the interface take up substantially less space than before. If you’re a real minimalist, you can shrink the sidebar to show only website favicons, and suddenly Chrome’s chrome is almost entirely out of the way.

I’m pretty happy with my top tabs in Safari, but I must admit that this is a pretty clean look. And Tahoe’s tabs take up more room than ever.
