Chrome extensions

I loves me some Chrome! drool Some fave extensions:

High Contrast:

Can reverse page colors - e.g. make white backgrounds black (I find this easier on the eyes).

20 Cubed:

Every 20 mins., gives you a reminder to rest your eyes.

Bookolio:

Customize your new tab page.

LastPass:

Password manager.

Minimalist for Google Calendar:

Customized reduction of clutter from G. Calendar pages.

Minimalist for Google Reader:

See "Minimalist for Google Calendar".

Minimalist for Everything


Super Full Feeds for Google Reader


Page Monitor:

Lets you know when a web page has updated.

Proxy Switchy!:

Proxies.

Too Many Tabs for Chrome:

If you're a tab junkie like me, this can free up memory, by suspending them.

If you can recommend any Chrome extensions that do the above tasks better, I would be appreciative! Or just recommend Chrome extensions! woot!

I...don't use any of that stuff.

I think the only extension I'm using, is the YouTube downloader one...which, is like the best thing in the world to me. It's just a 'button' that they stick underneath every YouTube video, and if you see something you like, just click on it and you've got it saved to your hard drive.

I used to have to jump hoops copy-pasting links into other sites just to do that...

i use google chrome, but now I'm questioning that decision. Reports have come out about Google spying on people, passwords, etc...etc....not good.

Do you really think they'd risk that?

IF that's true, I highly doubt Chrome's the only browser that does that. They Firefox probably does too, Internet Explorer, Opera....so on and so forth.
