It can be switched on and off with the 'Toggle Sidebar' option from the menu bar, or you can add a 'button' to the Safari Toolbar via Safari's customise Address bar option.

Each new tab opened will appear in the sidebar with a windowed image of the site. To open a new window just double click in the sidebar, then enter the required URL or click on the appropriate bookmark. Thumbnails can be re-ordered by dragging and dropping them into the positions you require.

Each tab has a context menu with the following options:

New Tab - creates a new tab Close Tab Reload Tab Mark - Is for marking a tab you want to keep. Close all Unmarked tabs - This option is only revealed once you've 'marked' a tab, allowing you to quickly close all but the marked tabs. Mark All Tabs Unmark All Tabs

Tips
