I've only got about 13 open on this computer (at my parents') but my own tends to average around 70. It's because...basically I never go back to things if I bookmark them, but if I leave them open in a tab I will get to them. I tend to have all my "usual" sites, plus anything interesting-looking that's been linked to from someone's journal/twitter/fb gets opened in a new tab, and often stays open so I remember to link to it next time I post. A bunch of TV Tropes pages, usually, because it's so branch-y, it's impossible to read linearly. Sometimes even things just I want to show people next time they come round.

Once you get to 10 tabs or so open in Firefox there's a drop-menu at the right that lets you see the full titles of them all and go straight to them.

*nods* I know about the drop-menu collapse thingy (I do hit fifteen or sixteen sometimes but that's about my limit). But given that the bookmarks toolbar does exactly the same thing, and, as you say, most of the tabs aren't visible to you anyway, how is it different or more or less convenient? Less so for the browsing-of-the-now, but for the ones you plan to go back to?

I guess it's six and half a dozen if your computer can handle that many tabs..
