What's new

Google Chrome added an option to show tabs vertically along the side of the window instead of across the top.

How to turn it on

  • Right-click a Chrome window.
  • Select Show Tabs Vertically.
  • It stays that way until you change it back.

Google says there's no hard limit on the number of tabs beyond your hardware.
