Taboo is basically a temporary bookmarks manager. If you have found an article that you find interesting but it is too long you would normally have 3 options.

  1. Bookmark it.

  2. Leave the tab open and move on.

  3. Close the tab and find it in your history.

All of these options have one major problem: Clutter. Bookmarks can either be stored in a menu or the bookmarks toolbar. This is fine for sites that are frequented often or are permanent references but temporary bookmarks make the perminant bookmarks harder to find. A separate temporary bookmarks folder is fine but it can be very hard to find a specific bookmark mixed in with all of the other temporary bookmarks. Leaving the bookmark in your tabbar makes sorting through your tabs frustrating. The history is normaly erased after a set period of time ind is a pain to look through.

Taboo solves these problems. If you can't remember the sites name, you can look for the thumbnail of the site. If you can only remember when you looked at the site you can view your taboos in calendar mode. If you know that you added your taboo recently (within the last 10 or so) you can use the menu attached to the "View Taboos" button as the list is sorted by most recently added. Taboo is a beta so more features should appear as time goes on.
