"Save multiple tabs to Collections

Personally, I LOVE this idea for Collections so much that I now use it every day and have been since HotCakeX first posted this Post. I think it is 10(TEN) times better than "Set Aside Tabs" ever was! Every morning I open 7 Tabs for 7 different websites that I work in. With Set Aside tabs I would have to hit the "button" to set those tabs aside again after working in those tabs each and every time or I'd have to open each tab separately fresh all over again. With the Collection feature they are Always there and no need to place them in a Collection after every time I worked on those sites.... Open Collections, Open that collection, click Open ALL and poof they are all opened in a new window. When done, just close that window/new opened browser instants and all is done. No need to resave or anything else. You can NOT get any simpler than this. And every time I open them they are right where I left off the last time in them.... It's not rocket science.....

Dennis5mileThat's a different usage scenario, because collections is (at its core) a different feature. What works perfectly for you might not be optimal for everyone. See, the way I use set aside tabs is basically for stuff I ran out of time to look over and/or address. So when I reload tabs, they get used once, and I close them. I don't need to manually go back in and delete them. Until they give me an option to make them volatile, they're barely better than bookmarks for me.
- Same, I hope one day they reenable a similar feature, at least in settings of collections (and setting a button for easily setting them aside)
Dennis5mile Thanks for that delightful feedback! We're so glad to hear that you're enjoying it!
