In Google Chrome, it is possible to quickly jump to the desired tab by simply pressing CTRL + the number corresponding to the location of the tab. That is, CTRL + 1 will switch you to the first tab, CTRL + 2 – to the second, and so on.

Of course, calculating tab numbers is not very cool. Especially when you just need to switch between the last two. And then the [**Boomerang**](https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/boomerang/cimdclgcnpbgikdnjenhanopochepihp) extension will come to the rescue, which will help you switch between the last two tabs by pressing a combination of hot keys `Command (CTRL) + Shift + Left`.
