A simple marker tab for people who keep many tabs and windows open in their browser but want to know where things are. It has a bonus feature of being able make quick to-do lists. List items can also be links.

What is a marker tab?

If you have many tabs open but would like to place a dummy tab with a custom message to help you stay organized, then this is what you need! Of course there are other fancy browser plugins but this is plain HTML + JavaScript + CSS and it does not need access to any of your open tabs.

Sample

Usage

  1. Download (or clone) this repo and open <somewhere-on-disk>/todo/index.html in your browser
  2. Customize the tab by providing a name like <somewhere-on-disk>/todo/index.html?name=⚑ News. If you make notes, it will stay in your local browser storage and survive restarts
  3. You can go one step further and create a custom search engine if your browser supports it. For example on Chrome you could create a custom search engine to index.html?name=⚑ %s and add a keyword like tab. You can then open a new marker tab by just typing tab Blah in the adderess bar and it will magically open this page for you Add to-do list items. They can also be links if they are written like this [Refer SO](http://stackoverflow.com/foo-bar)
