Microsoft Edge launches Workspaces test that lets you share browser tabs

To do this, hit the Invite button to the right of Edge’s address bar and then hit Copy link. You can then send over the link via email, Slack, or any other messaging service. Keep in mind that whoever receives the link will have to download Edge in order to view and edit your Workspaces, however. When they accept the invite, you’ll see their name and icon within your Workspace, as well as which tab they’re currently in. You can also view any previously created Workspaces from the Workspace icon at the top left of your browser.

Microsoft notes that it won’t share private information when using your Workspace with others, including your passwords, downloads, collections, extensions, or cookies. It also won’t allow other users to view “website content which only you have access to,” such as your email inbox, and won’t show them anything you’re looking at outside your Workspace. If you have a PC, you can access the Workspaces preview here.

When trying out the feature for myself, the only thing that tripped me up was that it immediately opens a new window when you create a new Workspace. That means if you have all your tabs but forget to open a Workspace first, you’re going to have to copy and paste everything over to the Workspace once you create one. But that’s something Microsoft might be able to iron out before it launches the feature to everyone.
