Fluid - Convert Web into Applications
Advertisements
Everyday in your working days, you probably need to check all the same e-mail, news, website or maybe favorite blog site. You should try using Fluid.
Distinguishable Icons
With Fluid, you can convert all of them into each separate applications, which are easily distinguishable. And you will find that you won't need to cycle all your opened web browser tabs in order to find particular site. The icon is customizable and you can put it on your Dock.
Getting Notifications from Your Mail
You can get the notifications from your e-mail, e.g. Yahoo! Mail, right on the top of your Dock. With those newly created Yahoo! Mail and Hotmail applications, your Mail won't be a loner anymore.
Easy to Hide
The other benefits of being in separate applications is that you can easily hide it; You cannot hide one tab or one window alone if you're using the same web browser, it will hide all of them instead.
Bookmarks in Your Stack
Combining with Leopard's stack feature, creating unique applications along with their fav-icons will be a wise choice.

I dont get it. Why have a dedicated webapp when I can just use a browser tab instead? seems more streamlined to me to use 1 app (browser).

The video on the homepage of fluid gives the example of if you consistently use googleDOCs. If you happen across some unstable website while in another tab, it will crash all of safari. With this, it keeps it separate from everything else.
