5 Tab Management Strategies for Heavy Multitaskers

1. Use a few named buckets

Most people don't need complex folder structures. Create 3–5 "buckets" for tabs: Work, Personal, Research, Shopping, Later. This simple categorisation helps you mentally organise without overhead.

2. Save sessions deliberately

When a window gets messy, save the whole set as a session with a meaningful name. That reduces cognitive load and lets you close tabs without losing them forever.

3. Use the "two window" rule

Keep one window for your current focus, another for reference material. This physical separation helps maintain concentration while keeping resources accessible.

4. Set a daily tab limit

Challenge yourself to keep under 20-30 tabs. When you hit the limit, you're forced to evaluate what's truly important. Most tabs you think you'll return to, you never will.

5. Let automation handle the rest

Once you've got the organisation layer, freezing background tabs prevents RAM creep. TabQuell is designed for that "set and forget" workflow — it handles memory management while you focus on work.
