Google Chrome Extensions

Zascar

I switched to Chrome ages ago, I really love it, so fast and nice to use. The only thing I missed is the extensions, but thankfully you can now get Chrome Extensions. Currently in Developer beta but soon to be on general release, chrome will now be a real contender.

Gmail Checker and Google Tasks are my favourite so far. The only one I really want now is "Mouse Gestures" so you can navigate back and forward by holding the right mouse button and dragging left or right.

Should be loads more on the way when its on general release

This might help too.

Yeah, I'd also need xmarks and lastpass addons before I'd be tempted to move from firefox

There are loads loads more at the official Google Extensions page:
https://chrome.google.com/extensions

Slideshow is fantastic. Also check out ones for Twitter, Digg, Google Maps, Weather, Adblock

Oh and lastpass is there too - Thanks I had never heard of it before but always wanted a password manager like this, looks great!
Xmarks is there now too:

This just keeps getting better and better - Picnick the web based image editing software, now tightly integrated: https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/hcifofgaphfkfdcjbdogpamghiihilkl

I can't wait to see the next generation of apps that come out over the next year or so...

This any use?

I'm surprised how many of my favourites they have.

There are so many good ones that pretty soon I'm not going to have any room left for my url bar - I've got so many extension buttons building up from the right hand side.

However I'm sure someone will make an extension to let those buttons have their own bar at the bottom. If anyone finds one of these please let me know!

Oh and I also want to be able to rearrange the order of these buttons too, currently they are arranged in order of install

Not a patch on the Firefox Adblock Plus addon, its just so easy to subscribe to the easy list and never see an ad again. This You gotta train
