    I usually hover around 4-5. Most of the time I will have Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr all open in tabs even though I tend to forget to ever check them. I rarely have more than two or three "active" tabs going.

    Usually 1 or 2 pinned (MAL and some american cartoon I'm watching right now), 2-3 important ones I need for some reason (right now one with a PC setup I'm looking to buy and a site with cheap furniture, to put it under it, or 3 most informative sites regarding my project subject, like I had while writing my final report for uni, etc). Rest are current "session", may be anywhere from 2 (yt and mmoc) up to 50+ - 4chan ftw lol.

    I have 37 open right now, I usually have something close to that open. I was happy to get my new computer, it handles anything smoothly.

    If I have more then 1 my OCD kicks in. Not too sure why. If I need to make a new a tab to Google something real quick, I make sure to close it right after I'm done. I always only have 1 tab.

    usually 2-12, average 4-6 maybe...
    poll is odd, i just woke up..not tracking threads, so only have front page and this open, not looking at profession guides to help people in trade, nor farmville or kingdoms of camelot, FB games...

    atm i would ahve to answer 2...but if you gave me like 30-60 minutes, and a cup of coffee i'd be up to 5
    Still I cry, tears like pouring rain, Innocent is my lurid pain.

    3 at the moment.

    normaly around 5-8:
    1 buffering something on youtube (penn and teller atm)
    1 forum main page
    3+ threads

    i tend to close unused tabs as fast as possible. wikipedia, google, calculators etc.
    if i have to open more interesting tabs i save the links and open them later when im done with the current ones. i suck at multitasking.

    Facebook > Hulu/Netflix > MMO-Champ > random school shit

    One. I absolutely cannot stand looking at friends/roommates browsers with 10 freaking tabs open. I'm way too OCD for that stuff.

    I am a pig . I never go under 15. Usually I have around 20-25 tabs opened and when I am doing research on something in addition to my regular work and entertainment I can have anywhere between 40-60.

    In my world tabs basicly replace favorite sites I visit at least somewhat regurarly. However Firefox doesn't start very quickly though.
