+# Search Tabs With The Vimium Vomnibar
+
+If you use Chrome like I do, then you eventually end up with several windows
+with dozens if not 100+ tabs open. It can start to get tedius with that many
+tabs to find and navigate to a given tab. Someone might suggest closing a few
+dozen tabs as a solution to this predicament. However, Vimium offers a solution
+that doesn't require I [_kill my
+darlings_](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/kill_one%27s_darlings).
+
+The Vomnibar, a Vimium-powered search bar, can be summoned with `T` to only
+search through open tabs.
+
+When I hit `T`, I see a text area (for refining the search) and then a bunch of
+entries populate below that which I immediately recognize as many of those tabs
+that I'm going to get back to one of these days.
+
+To narrow down to the specific thing I'm looking for, I type something into the
+input. Then I arrow to the result I'm looking for and hit enter. And I'm
+transported to that tab.
+
+If I don't like where I ended up, I can also go back to the tab I had been on
+with `^`.
