This extension is truly indispensable – trying to use a browser without it feels like a torture.

Have been using this for a few years now and it's absolutely wonderful! It's a BIG part of my workflow and hasn't failed me yet! Kudos to the dev!

Love it, it's an essential help on ChromeOS. However, can we get a configurable "pattern matching" UI for, say, 10 presets? I am always bringing up the window and searching "mail" to find my GMail tab. I'd rather just switch straight to it using Ctrl+alt+n or something like that, and continually typing that combo would carousel through all gmail tabs.

One of the best spotlight-like tab switchers I have found!

By far the best tab switcher found on Chrome store.

Changing the keyboard shortcut is done via Chrome Settings : Extensions : Keyboard shortcuts menu.

Would be a 5 if you could customize the hotkey.

This is such a great idea for a Chrome extension. However, the extension offers no way to change the keyboard shortcut from Cmd+K to something else. Since I rely so heavily on Cmd+K to create hyperlinks when composing emails in Gmail, when editing Google Docs, and in other web applications, I ended up having to uninstall the extension :( But this extension is such a great idea that if there's ever support for changing the keyboard shortcut to something other than Cmd+K, I'll definitely resume using the extension.

After updating to Version 2013.9.21 I had to remove and reinstall the extension to get it to work. After the reinstall it's working as expected! --- With the update on 2013-03-11 cmd-k no longer brings up the task list if the button is hidden. Turn the button on and it works as expected. Chrome -25.0.1364.160 OS X - 10.7.5

Nearly perfect. Actually it was perfect until it stopped working today after the new release. 4 stars is for old time's sake.

I have some issue related with this extension I love the concept but on osx in fullscreen mode / presentation mode, when I select a tab it closes the window. So it makes it unusable in the current state. If you need more infos or testing I will be happy to help I miss an iswtchb mode for my tabs

This is by far the best way to navigate between Chrome tabs, and without your hands ever leaving the keyboard. Press Command-K and any substring of the tab name, and boom there you are. Simple and elegant.
