Chrome's new split view / open new link in split view

[Digital Doctor]

once you open link in "split view" ... it looks like this.

where the link opens in the right half of the screen.

I think this is useful as most screen are wider than is useful and most websites "don't use the full screen to the max".

It's kind of a browser based version of Windows split screen.
To see windows split screen use [Win]+right arrow.

In the [Win] + Tab menu

The split screen gets a double-wide view

Split view is actually a nice addition, widescreens usually waste space, and most sites don’t stretch their layouts anyway. Having Chrome handle the split for you feels smoother than dragging windows around, especially when you’re comparing pages or reading something while keeping a reference open. It’s basically the browser catching up to how people already use their desktops.
