Thanks for the post Robleh!
Really excited to share CycleTab with all of you.
I was frustrated with the fact that I had to choose between using the Product Hunt or Panda or Hello Tab Chrome extension, because I wanted to use all of them!
So with some help from my friends Hector and Moritz we built CycleTab, so you can cycle through all your favourite Chrome tab extensions (no more picking favourites).
Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback! :)
Really clever. I used to use Momentum (one of the first great hunts on PH) before we launched the Product Hunt for Chrome extension. Now I can more easily switch between them both.
@rrhoover Thanks Ryan! That's great to hear. I really enjoy being able to cycle through Momentum, Product Hunt, Panda, and Giphy Tabs (though Giphy always distracts me from the task at hand) :)
This is a really cool side project from my good friend Corey (@cpollo01) and Moritz (@neuling2k). It's a fun way to put all your fav Chrome extensions to good use and get attention of people around you when you're opening up new tabs.
@staringispolite Thanks! CycleTab is also a new-tab-extension. Whenever a new tab opens, we go through a list of available/installed new-tab-extensions and redirect to one of them.
The tricky part was to be always the "last" new-tab-extension and never lose control over the new-tab-behaviour even if a new new-tab-extension was installed. We did this by reloading our extension every time a new extension gets installed or (re)enabled. So CycleTab is always on the top of the extension stack.

Thank you so much for building this. Now I can combine my love for Tech (Panda) and Travel (Hitlist, Weekend Getaway, Groupon Getaway Explorers) in the piece of software I use the most. Great work!
