User reviews
This Extension works really well. I was using to Pop-Out Selected Tabs into a New Window. It works, but I don't know how the code is written in the background, but the Tabs take a long while to Load and Appear in the New Window. I recently found another Extension "Tab Shortcuts" that I'll be testing out.
