| 12 | +### A Chrome extension for Intuitive tab management |
| 13 | + |
| 14 | +Spaces is a workspace manager for chrome. |
| 15 | +It treats each chrome window like a different workspace and lets you name and save each space. |
| 16 | +You can close a window full of tabs at any time then reopen it later and continue exactly |
| 17 | +where you left off. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Spaces keeps track of new tabs opened in each workspace and also tabs that you close. |
| 20 | +It also allows you to quickly move a tab that you are currently viewing into any |
| 21 | +other space- whether it's open or closed. |
| 22 | +Great for when you find yourself opening a tab out of context with what you are currently |
| 23 | +working on and want to come back to it later. |
| 24 | + |
| 25 | +Spaces was developed to help users that tend to have way too many tabs open in a chrome window. |
| 26 | +It encourages you to move tabs that are not immediately relevant into a different, |
| 27 | +more appropriate space - thus removing it from your current window. |
| 28 | +This keeps your chrome session manageable - both visually and from a memory perspective. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +Isn't this essentially just bookmarks with folders? Yeah, pretty much - but who uses bookmarks? |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +### Chrome Web Store |
| 33 | + |
| 34 | +Spaces is also [available via the official Chrome Web Store](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/spaces/cenkmofngpohdnkbjdpilgpmbiiljjim). |
| 35 | + |
| 36 | +Please note that the webstore version may be significantly behind the latest version here. |
| 37 | + |
