I know where you are coming from. I also like to use the open web, but it bugs me when I end up with opening 5-10 tabs each time I go into HN and have to navigate around between them and close them again.
It is for the Mac and not for the iPhone/iPad (might come later).
If you have no need for it, it's probably not for you. Hehe.

haha, too true. I'm a bit of a tabaholic I suppose. It's nothing to have 10-20 tabs in a window, with separate windows open for different stuff (HN window, work window, mail/FB window..) Heck, I'll stumble across tabs I meant to read last week or last month all the time...
I'm the same way: I look at the list of stories, open all the ones that look interesting in new tabs, and do the same with the comments for them as well. Then, I have a nice queue of six to twelve tabs to peruse.
