Google and Verticle Tabs

Google Chrome is introducing vertical tabs, giving users the option to move tabs to the side of the browser window for easier reading of full page titles and improved tab group management. Once enabled, vertical tabs will stay on by default until the user switches it back.

Alongside this change, Chrome is also rolling out a new Reading Mode that provides a full-page, distraction-reduced interface designed to help us focus on text, becoming the new default experience at a time when many web pages—especially news sites—are increasingly littered with ads.

Now to get started with trying out your new google chrome tricks...

Open a new tab and paste this link > chrome://flags/

At the top in the search window where it says search flags, type in the word tabs.

There you will see in the listed below, Verticle Tabs set at default. Click that and choose enable.

Then at the lower right hand of the screen/window click Relaunch.

After doing this, then go to the top right corner with the vericle three dots and scroll down to more tools, and from there you can choose vertical tabs. If you decide you don’t really like the vertical tabs feature you can simply go back to the same more tools and choose horizontal tabs again.

Once you have enabled the flag, you will at least be able to go back and forth and decide for yourself which you refer.

Your new Reading mode is also accesible from the same more tools in the drop down list. This one for sure is worth using, it wipes out all of the annoying ads.

Thanks for stopping by, Good Luck!
