can you clarify on "communicate to manipulate one"? what exactly do you want to accomplish here?

Basically, from the background file know which tabs are open so a polling function could occur provided a specific tab is open. ;)

two and a half years later..

I'm looking at bringing lots of http://github.com/honestbleeps/reddit-enhancement-suite changes back upstream to BabelExt, including a "multicast" feature: "send a message to all other tabs". This feature could be layered on top of that by sending "opened/closed url" messages on ready and beforepageunload.
