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.

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". New in 0.5.4 (2020-05-14): * Reduce permissions for Chrome Web Store policies New in 0.5.3 (2012-08-21): * Bug fixes New in 0.5.2 (2011-07-06): * Added an option to start Carousel automatically, by request from a user * Tabs that have previously failed to reload now reload correctly * Carousel now only flips through tabs in the window in which it was started Example Uses On a computer that has an external display (like an HDTV), try opening: * NewRelic - Open as many tabs as you want for your apps -- don't forget to turn on "kiosk mode" * Twitter - Make a list of services you use, for example, and open it * Status sites: * GitHub * Heroku * Hoptoad * Monitor your build service, such as CruiseControl * Packages with tracking information * Anything else that's on the web that you want to monitor The TabCarousel wiki on GitHub has more: https://github.com/benjaminoakes/TabCarousel/wiki TabCarousel is open source software.

It works great. The best part is that it requires zero extra permissions. It would be 5 stars if it allowed me to change the auto refresh time or disable it.

It's good, but very disappointing you can't use full screen mode

Feedback from early users has clearly been taken on board as this extension works perfectly IMO. From one dev to another, excellent job mate :)
