Hide!!! - Panic Button and Tab Manager Extension

Pretend like you're working with Hide!!!

Hide!!! allows you to close your tabs in a pinch and then restore them when the coast is clear. When you close your tabs, Hide!!! will also redirect you to a safe page so you can disguise what you were doing. If the option is enabled, Hide!!! can also clear your history--to fully cover your tracks.

By default, the hotkeys are (Alt + P) to \"hide\" and (Alt + O) to \"restore\". The default redirection page is \"google.com\". To change these settings and more, click on the Hide!!! icon in your Chrome Toolbar.
