Chrome 19 – version 19.0.1084.46, to be precise – was released this week, bringing with it one major addition: tab syncing. This nice addition means that you can access your current tab session across multiple devices.

That means, for instance, that if you’re researching hotels in Barcelona at home, you can access the same selection of tabs from your Android device or tablet while you’re traveling. It’s a really handy feature and a welcome addition to Google’s star browser.

To use tab syncing, you need to be logged into your Google Account and have syncing enabled. Go to the spanner menu, and, under Settings > Advanced Sync Settings, and make sure Open Tabs is enabled. To access the synced tabs, open a new one and, in the bottom right corner, open Other Devices and click the tab you want.
