Uh...*hundreds* of tabs?  At the same time?  You know, the newest
version of Firefox has this really cool, innovative feature that will
help manage all this content you view.  It's called a "bookmark".  :-)

How in the world do you manage hundreds of open tabs?  It has to take
several minutes just to find the right tab!?
