#BROWSERS LIKE GHOST BROWSER FULL#

your browser is generally so full of tabs that you have to start clicking through a lot of them to find what you really need.Īnd how often do you start clicking through tabs and find something that pulls your attention away from the task that you are doing? So why do we use browsers that were not intended for doing work in the web?īrowsers – especially the ones that are more intent on tracking you – force you into weird workflows like making you constantly log in and out, and create unique problems like tab bloat that interrupt our concentration and deep work.įor example, when things go well, logging out of one account on a website and logging back in takes an average of 17 seconds – assuming you get redirected to the page that you want to see after logging in.Īdd to that the problem of tab bloat. We don’t use FTP to manage our complex codebase, we use Git. We don’t use Google Docs for project management, we use Basecamp, Jira or something similar. But for many of us who use a browser more than any other tool in our arsenal, the time has come to ask if we are getting what we need out of the big three browsers and start looking for a solution that supports our workflow instead of getting in the way of it. We have all found and fallen in love with different tools that support our workflow. This post discusses how that affects both your quality of work and stress levels when building, developing and QA testing WordPress websites as well as doing SEO, and writing and marketing content on social media sites. Your web browser is holding you back in the daily grind of building and marketing WordPress sites.
