Control Space runs in its own window, on top of your other browser windows; this makes it fast!
Viewing and switching tabs is as simple as hitting Ctrl+Space then choosing the tab you want.
Layout
The popup has four main areas which work in unison with each other:
- Search
Filter all items by title or url - Workspace
View and organise open windows and tabs in context - Resources
Access recent, historical, and saved tabs - Tools
A growing collection of tab-related tools
