Polish up your Chrome with some of the best, most useful and intriguing extensions for Google’s browser.
When Google Chrome first arrived on scene, we had big hopes for the speedy little browser. Like a go-kart, it was simple, speedy, nimble, and… devoid of any creature comforts whatsoever. Firefox, the clunky sedan of the browser world, had spoiled us with its clever user-developed plug-ins – the browser equivalent of heated mirrors, power windows and a DVD player in the dash. Chrome just didn’t deliver.
But Google doesn’t sit still. A year and a half later, Chrome now includes its own support for extensions, and sports a growing library of over 3,200 – from simple Facebook tools to built-in image editors. No wonder the little browser that could has nibbled market share away from every other browser out there to reach a steady 5.6 percent. Ready to bolt on a few goodies for yourself? Here are 10 of our favorite Chrome extensions.
Google Mail Checker Plus
Gmail has lured us away from the sophisticated machinations of Microsoft Outlook for good, but we can’t help but miss those new e-mail notifications. Unless you have your Gmail feeding to a smartphone, you never really know when a new message arrives until you check. Google Mail Checker Plus solves this dilemma by tying directly into your Gmail account and showing the number of unread messages in the Chrome toolbar. It even wiggles and turns red when you have messages waiting. Clicking on it brings up a quick rundown of new messages, so you can read without even dropping what you’re doing.
