Tab grouping
If you start with a page of search results or the front screen of a site like IT PRO and right-click to open the stories you want to read in new tabs, all the tabs that you open from the first tab will be colour-coded to match. That makes it easier to split up your browsing without opening multiple browser windows. You can close a whole group of tabs together and you can take a tab out of a group, but you can’t add it back in and you can’t save a tab group as Favorites without saving all the open tabs. You can’t change the colours either; they’re designed to be easy to distinguish even if you’re colour-blind. If you find it hard to spot the active tab with all the colours, look for the X to close it.
