Today I came across a very funny add-on for FireFox called Colorful Tabs. Well, Like the names already assumes, it colors every FireFox tabs in a different color and makes them easy to distinguish! See a screenshot of my FireFox tabs here below.

ColorfulTabs doesn’t only color every tab in a different color and has some more features:

  • Colors by site domain - Color each tab depending on its server/domain for identifying the website.
  • Custom tab color - Give your tabs a color of your choice.
  • Enhanced tab highlighting - Fade the background tabs to identify the currently selected tab
  • Colors each tab using a unique and randomly generated color.
  • Colors each tab using a unique color depending on the site domain using a formula.
  • Allows user to chose colors.
  • Allows to fade the background tabs for easy identification of the selected tab.
  • Allows quick identification of the tabs.
  • Increases usability and visibility for people with visual challenges.

This simple add-on is pretty cool and I bet you’ll love it! :wink:
