Here's the way I use my web browsers. I pin google calendar and gmail. But I don't ever want to close them or navigate away. Tab Mix Plus is great for this, for firefox, but it's a bit of a hog. Firefox also has the setting to always open typed URLs in a new window, which would really solve all the problems for me, but I'm currently migrating to Chrome, and Chrome doesn't have the option. I was looking into writing my own extension to do that, but I really didn't want to go down that rabbit hole. First I'd have to learn it. Plus, I wasn't really sure it was feasible. For my usage, which is two pinned tabs, I had a better idea. It's not ideal, but I made a bookmarklet that will "lock" page . I think this only really works because of how google's apps navigate within their own window, but it works for my use case.
