About TabCarousel

A Chrome extension to help you keep tabs on info you want to monitor. It's great for cycling through tabs on an external display, like a TV. Authors: Benjamin Oakes, Madhur Ahuja, and Jim Adamson Tutorial TabCarousel is simple: open tabs you want to monitor throughout the day, then click the toolbar icon. To stop, click the icon again. By default, TabCarousel will flip through your tabs every 15 s, reloading them every 5 min. It's great on a unused display or TV. Put Chrome in full-screen mode (F11, or cmd-shift-f on the Mac) and let it go. If you want to change how often TabCarousel flips through your tabs, right click on the toolbar icon and choose "Options".
