Multi Tab Opener

Time released links with options and storage. It's like bookmarks on steroids.

Unlike bookmarks, with the Multi Tab Openeryou can control how fast your list of links will open. Instead of shocking your bandwidth with opening 10, 20, 30, or more URLS all at once- the Multi Tab Opener will slowly open each link one at a time in a new tab. You can also save and edit lists of links to your browser's local storage.

6. Clear

Storage

Uses the browser's local storage. If there are no URL lists saved, there will be an 'Add' button which brings up a form to save a URL list and give it a group name and description.

When there are 1 or more saved URL lists in storage you will be able to see:

1. The Actions & Stats section
2. Each saved URL list.

The Actions & Stats section will tell you how much of your local storage is being used- in KB and as a percentage of the total amount of storage your browser permits a domain to have. You can also add or remove URL lists. The MTO does not have the ability to edit a URL list yet. You can delete and recreate a list, or go into your browser's local storage and edit the JSON.

For each saved URL group you can copy the list, load the list in the textarea of the main screen, or open each link individually.

API

The MTO is not intended to expose any functions or data.
