Sign in to two different accounts on the same site (for example, you could sign in to work email and home email in two different Container tabs.
Keep different kinds of browsing far away from each other (for example, you might use one Container tab for managing your Checking Account and a different Container tab for searching for new songs by your favorite band)

Also, it is possible that the image you are looking for is just part of a video stream. This extension solves these problems by providing capturing tool in the right-click context menu. Simply select the item and capture a portion of the screen. The captured image is automatically sent to either "TinEye" or "Google Images" search engine and after successful upload, a new page with the matching results is displayed.
