Toby - Better Than Bookmarks

by

Bookmarks are for books, not browsers. Organize your browser tabs into Toby so you can access key resources in one click instead of seven. Toby is browser extension that helps organize your tabs.

Toby is fucking awesome. My girlfriend doesn't appreciate tech like this, and she is now a big fan of Toby. So simple and appealing for any background to enjoy
Arthur Camara
@cbanowsky Awesome Cameron. Thanks for the referral. Make sure you guys check the new version as well. There were a bunch of updates http://www.gettoby.com/blog/post...

Very useful! Thanks

There doesn't seem to be support for tabs from multiple windows. When I open a new tab, the Open Tabs list only displays open tabs from the current window? I'd like to be able to find an open tabs from other windows in my current window. It would be useful if Toby remembered whether the tab was pinned or not when it was added to a list too and reopened it in the same state.
Arthur Camara
@aplssf That's correct, Alex. Toby only lists tabs in the current window, but that's something we've been discussing. Thanks for your feedback and for trying it out, and let me know if Toby helps you get more productive or organized.
Alex Sherwood
@arthur_camara the option to drag & drop open tabs into a list would be useful too, at the moment I'm finding adding tabs to lists quite awkward to be honest.
Joe Boutros
@arthur_camara @aplssf +1 on this as well!
Toby Hervey
My name is Toby, and I wish I could upload a screenshot showing the 50+ tabs I currently have open on this window.
Arthur Camara
@tobyhervey Hahaha That's awesome! You can tweet it! I'm @arthur_camara on Twitter

I love this! I am currently using it to manage one of my Chrome profiles. However, to really adopt ubiquitously I would love to be able to turn off its greedy take-over of my new tab interface, as I already use Momentum Dashboard there. I'd like to be able to just click the Toby icon (or better yet, press a hotkey) to bring up the Toby interface.
Arthur Camara
@nurihodges Sounds like a good idea. Thanks for sharing. I'll keep that in mind
Arthur Camara
@nurihodges Now you can! Check out the new version and let me know if you like it

@mackflavelle @arthur_camara Loved it! Suggestion to add "add all open tabs to this list" so I can work in bulk and stop using OneTab forever. Also I know there is privacy concerns but a way to backup everything would be awesome.
Arthur Camara
@jardel @mackflavelle Yes! That's definitely coming very very soon! I wish I'd thought of the "Add all tabs" feature before myself cause I also want to use it now that I hear feedback from you guys :) It was definitely valuable to post it here and start hearing all the ideas. Keep 'em coming, I love it and it really helps! Backing up is also coming through a sync feature and I think it'll make this super useful to use across devices. So yeah, thanks again for trying Toby and keep an eye on the upcoming updates.

Love the design!
Julien PourInfo AOrléans
Good job !!! are there plans an option that would rename the title and description of the tiles. It could be very useful 😉👍
Arthur Camara
@julien_pourinfo_aorleans Yes, we're discussing that! Stay tuned and I'll let you know if we add that to Toby.

Echoing the question re: plans to allow the editing of name/favico/description of tabs and privacy policy. Looks good though.
Arthur Camara
@chrisdolle Privacy Policy will be up today, I promise! I also promise we don't receive any of your personal data, like which tabs you add to Toby or what your lists are. It's a client-side app only. About renaming tabs, that's on our plans of dicussing soon! Thanks for using Toby!

Besides being prettier, how is it better or different than One Tab? BTW I installed, so I'm evaluating it.
Arthur Camara
@alvinmilton It's always on your face and helps you organize it better. That's the big advantage to me right now. Plus, there are several upcoming features that will make it even more valuable. Keep an eye on it :) And thanks, Alvin, for evaluating Toby. Let me know if you have any thoughts.
Alvin Milton
@arthur_camara Can you show any image from the meta tags in the area under the description? To quicker identify the site at a glance...
Arthur Camara
@alvinmilton Yes, good idea! that's certainly a thing I'm considering. A few people asked me for preview images either on hover or under the description and I think it could be a nice addition to Toby if done right. I'll play around with that concept and bring back some ideas and solutions to get more feedback from you guys.
