More ways to find the right Chrome Extension for you
Thursday, August 19, 2010
A few months ago, we
launched
several categories of featured Chrome extensions to help you find the right one. Today, in addition to updating these pages with new extensions, we are also launching more categories to enhance your web experiences in
News and weather
,
Photos
,
Productivity
,
Search tools
and
Social
.
If you have a busy life online and offline, extensions in the
Productivity
category can help you be more efficient and productive on the web. With
Start!
or
Incredible Start Page
, you can customize your New Tab page to quickly access your favorite sites. Extensions like
StayFocusd
and
Time Tracker
can help you keep track of your time spent on various web sites.
Chrome extensions can also help you view, edit and share
photos and images
easily. You can take screenshots of web pages using
Awesome Screenshot
and
Webpage Screenshot
. You can also transform your favorite photo sites into slideshows with
iSlide
or scroll through images on an infinite 3D wall with
Cooliris
.
For those who use
social networking services
like Twitter, Facebook and Google Buzz, there are extensions to help you stay connected with your family and friends. With
Shareaholic for Google Chrome
or
AddThis
, you can share web pages to your social networks, email and blogs. For Twitter users,
TweetMeme
to retweet any article you find on the web. There are also full-featured Twitter extensions like
Chromed Bird
or
Chrowety
that allows you to follow and send tweets, retweets and direct messages from your Google Chrome browser.
I hope you enjoy these new categories of extensions. We are working to make the categories in the
gallery
more dynamic so you can easily find the Chrome extensions you want.
