but I've only just come back to my desk after lunch, so it will no doubt increase to at least 10 as the afternoon wears on... | | | Anthony Baldwin United States Local time: 00:38 Portuguese to English + ... put 4-6, but miscounted | Nov 2, 2007 |
At the moment I have open the following: 1 bash terminal window (to run Omega T .jar) 2 Omega T work window 3 This mozilla window in which I am viewing proz (with 5 tabs open for various resources I use while working) 4 mozilla mail window 5 xmms window (playing catupecu machu, mana, los piojos, soda stereo, julieta venegas mix playlist) 6 kthesaurus window 7 konqueror window displaying the folder containing the project on which I am working | | |
Right now I am counting 3 tabs in one browser window, 4 tabs in a second browser window plus 7 other windows. This is my normal average | |

I love tabs on Firefox! I reckon each application appears more clearly on the task bar this way. | | |
if you include tabs. That's why I love tab navigation browsers! | | |
Three email accounts and this one. No doubt I'll open at least two more during the day. | | |
The question is unclear to me. There's "windows/tabs" so I presumed it's about a browser (browser tabs or browser windows, depending on browser type), but here I can see people naming different programs. However I woulnd't call having opened 5 different programs as "tabs". At the moment of voting I had opened 3 tabs (now 4, to reply to the poll), and 5 other windows of other soft (or 4, as 2 are windows of Konqueror).... See more The question is unclear to me.

Vote seems to be the wrong word here, and in fact I would not really call this a poll. Totally boring. | | | 4 at the moment | Nov 3, 2007 |
This is my minimum number. However, I usually have 1 for my mail, 1 for proz, 1 for an online dictionary, 2 for the documents I am translating (when I don't use a CAT tool), 1 for YM, and 1 for another forum in Tagalog which I browse everytime I get bored and need to take a break. | | | Silly question | Nov 3, 2007 |

I like the quick polls very much and "vote" regularly (to be honest, it's the first thing I do after logging in at proz.com in the morning). This "poll" is totally silly.

However I woulnd't call having opened 5 different programs as "tabs". Anni I agree with Anni. I have voted 7-10 as I thought the question referred to the browser only, otherwise I definitely have always more than 10! (often even within the browser itself, but I do try to limit that). I don't think the poll is silly, I have actually often wondered why people do not use more windows, I think having all you need within reach is much handier than opening and closing applications and windows all the time! The poll results confirm what I have heard so far from friends and collegues.
