Google Chrome extensions

I find myself using multiple browsers, but nowadays the browser extensions shape our browsing experience more than a browser. Here is a list of extensions I use in Google Chrome. I also made a list for Mozilla Firefox recently.

Feedly – Favorite RSS reader, I just have to have this in every browser I use (come on guys, finish the Android version already :).

AdBlock – No ads, just content (almost).

Smooth Gestures – Use mouse gestures to perform common tasks like going back, opening a new tab, opening link in new tab, and so on.

Google Mail Checker – Shows the number of unread emails and provides a quick access to Gmail. I like how it uses the same tab if you already have one open.

XML Tree – Displays XML documents in a tree and allows executing XPath.

Springpad – Online organizer, notepad, sharing tool, really cool application.

Google Dictionary – Sometimes it just works, but in some pages plainly fails.

Bookmarks – Adds a button for faster bookmarks access.

Awesome Screenshot: Capture & Annotate – The name says it all.

Share your favorite extensions in the comments, and if you like to improve your browsing experience further have a look at my post on Google Chrome search engines.
