There seems to be a lot of people who do not use the tabs and are not
happy about the wasted space. I am one of the mildly annoyed people
and created a greasemonkey script that removes the tabs entirely.
Wow. You actually went to the effort to write a script to remove the
sidebar?
Might have been easier to have switched to a new service. By writing
that script you are sending the message to Igoogle that they can muck
around however they like and we the users will still be faithful - we
will just find ways to work around it. Sort of like bending over for
them, you know?

This is a great script!!! Finally something that got rid of that
annoying side bar. Almost swtiched to something like yahoo or
netvibes. Now if only the chat in gmail can be fixed.

It is very nice that you are trying to get rid of that left navbar..
but in the process, you completely broke the gmail widget. It just
sits there loading.
There is another greasemonkey script that lets you open and close it,
just in case you have more than one tab, and does not break anything
else in the process.

I might add... you can go to line 185 in the script and tinker with
the button's appearance to make it smaller and a different color, so
it doesn't sit out there looking so clunky.

That's very cool but I simply asked Google (nicely) to remove it - and
gave some good reasons... then, one day, it was gone. I'm not sure
which request - and to whom - did the deal but obviously one was
effective.
It really doesn't make sense that you should be in a position where
you have to code around another vendor's UI problems.
