Tab Session Management extension for Epiphany
One of the features I’d like all browsers, that support tabbed-browsing, should include by default is to let the user save the current window’s tab layout (aka tab session) to a file and also provide the ability to load such a saved tab session.

GUIs For Python Programs
Two months ago, I decided to start learning Python. Although I have spent a significant amount of time with it, I still discover very interesting things I would like to spend even more time with. Here are some links, which I believe could help someone to get started quickly with pyGTK and Glade: PyGTK 2.0…
