1. A computer-implemented method for merging webpages in a web browser, comprising:
providing user tools on a web browser, wherein the user tools are manipulatable by a web browser user for prescribing a level of similarity for webpage content to cause two or more webpages in the web browser to be combined;
determining the level of similarity of the webpage content of two or more webpages displayed in the web browser responsive to the web browser user prescribed level of similarity wherein each webpage has a respective webpage tab;
merging the two or more webpages into a single webpage tab representing the merged two or more webpages when the determined level of similarity of the two or more webpages meets the web browser user prescribed level of similarity; and
generating an aggregated view of webpage contents associated with the two or more merged webpages in a single browser window associated with the single webpage tab, the aggregated view having two or more portions, each of the two or more portions concurrently displaying webpage content of a corresponding merged webpage such that two or more webpage tabs associated with the two or more webpages are merged into the single webpage tab.
