Contextinator Extension

Contextinator lets you divide your web browsing sessions into projects and manage all of their related information. A project is a collection of browser tabs opened in the same window, series of filters in existing applications (Gmail, Evernote, Dropbox, etc.), bookmarks, people and tasks.

With Contextinator, you can:

- Access and manage all the information related to a project from a single page
- Save and restore browser tabs for each project
- Work on multiple projects simultaneously and easily switch between them
- Get a big picture of your projects to better plan your work
- Avoid distractions in your email inbox, only look at unread email for a project

What is a Project?

A project is what you make it. It can be a holiday you're planning to Puerto Rico, a course you're taking in School, your PhD thesis, a hobby project or web browsing you do for fun.

Each project may have several kinds of information associated with it:
Window - Each project has a single window

Tabs - Any tabs you open in the project window belong to that project. These tabs are saved, so the next time you open a project, they will be restored. You can close a project at any time, without worrying about losing tabs.

Apps - For each project, you can define filters for existing applications like Gmail, Evernote, etc. For example, you can say that a Gmail Label belongs to a project. When you visit Gmail in a project, you will be automatically redirected to that label.

Bookmarks - You can create bookmarks specific to a project.

People - You can add people to a project by entering their email addresses. When you visit a project's homepage, we will show unread Gmail messages from those users.

Tasks - Contextinator comes with a task manager. You can add tasks to a project, which are easily accessible when you are web browsing.

Dolina Zamkova (ID: 00000016e1420285) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 02/08/2016 Вже в котре несподівано зникають всі існуючі проекти, що цікаво — після того, як деякі були прив’язані до Google Drive (вони чомусь не прив’залися, а теж зникли). Останнє оновлення — 9.10.2013, сьогодні 8.02.2016. Сире розширення, ще й майже два з половиною року без оновлень. Звісно, їх годі й чекати — видаляю. Шкода, бо задум потужний.

Dorian (ID: 000000ee42d6f962) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 09/16/2014 This is pretty much alpha quality. It has some good ideas, but lots of bugs and not very functional. Considering it has not been updated for more than a year I think it's best to look at other solutions and leave this be. Or maybe fork it on GitHub

(ID: ) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 03/31/2014 I really like the idea of this extension, but what I don't like is losing all of my projects. Why would Contextinator actively empty a bookmarks folder? Really too bad.
