So far, I'm really liking it. Minefield is working well, and Panorama is one of those "why the hell wasn't this done sooner?" things. I recommend giving it a try.
Well, it certainly looks really cool, but like Win-Tab, I just can't see myself using it in my everyday computing experience. I rarely have more than five or six tabs open to save myself from confusion and distraction, and I can readily keep them straight by the tab titles. That looks like a well-made program, though, so kudos to the author.

I used to have 2 or 3 windows each with a dozen or so tabs. Panorama is a godsend.
Win-Tab isn't used because it didn't expand on alt-tab. Panorama, on the other hand, is actually something new. I really like it. Firefox 4 is also looking pretty good (Panorama is an Fx4 feature if you missed that)
Win-Tab let you see the contents of each window while alt-tabbing, but in the eye candy wasn't as efficient for me as alt-tab and caching what each window was for in my own memory. I did indeed miss that Panorama is an Fx4 feature; thanks for clarifying that.
