Default Would You Use This?

I'm new to cocoa, so I'm messing around with a couple different projects...Cocoa is so different from C++ I'm having a hard time with it.
Anyways, I was wondering if the program in the screenshot attached is something that you think you would use.
If so, than I'll finish it up.

Clicky

Personnally no, but it may be useful to someone else. When I load more than one URL, it's generally because I want to be able to see the loaded URLs side by side, so I open a new window. When I open a new tab, it's generally because I don't want to loose the URL I first loaded and I need to check another one temporarily. But it's just me.

Just a note: the word "infinite" seems to me dangerous, as it's likely to crash the window manager or to slow down your connection dramatically if you launch too much URLs at the same time. Did you try it say with 100 URLs?

Indeed. Infinite is an overstatement, not one that I thought people to take seriousely :-/
I couldn't imagine someone trying to load more than 50 websites at a time. I guess if I do decide to post the app I'll have to make sure people are aware of that.

I also understand what you mean about tabs. Perhaps if there is a tabs / window option, allowing the user to choose whether they would like to open the sites in new tabs or new windows.

I don't know. I thought it may be usefull to peeps. Personally, it seems like every morning I do the exact same routine. I check my mail, open netnewswire, then go for the forums or websites that don't have RSS feeds. So it seemed natural to me to make a quicky script w/ a GUI front-end that would load all those sites with a click of a button.

Whateva.

I like the idea. If I had OS 10.2, I would use it. It would be highly useful for dialup users. I think it is cool.
