18 extensions for Google Chrome - Times Falcon

   A few years ago we didn't expect anything from internet browsers. Or rather, we weren't sure if we had a need to say, "I wish it was that." Things completely changed when we started experiencing the first problems that woke us from our sleep and put us in a difficult situation with Internet Explorer (when spyware was dancing with Internet Explorer). 

We can show Mozilla Firefox and Opera software as heroes of those times, but given the general prevalence, we see Firefox leading the way. Of course, there is an important part of providing incredible add-on and customization options here. 

In 2008, the period when Firefox doubled itself, we came across the Chrome browser developed by Google. For those who experienced first use, the browser was called "light and puny", but thanks to Google's dominance of the internet, it entered a rapid development process. 

As you know, mobile operating systems are now shaping their position in the market through software markets. The same goes for internet browsers. 

We experienced an undisputed example of this in Mozilla Firefox. Google's first move was to provide add-on and theme support on Chrome. This important innovation was announced about a year and a half ago. The Chrome Web Store, which launched last month, proves to us how efficient 1.5 years have been.

We've compiled 18 interesting extensions, all of which you can find in the Chrome Web Store or the Chrome Extension Directory, so you can customize Chrome for your own use, which can get new features in a very short time thanks to extension support.

1. Listen to your Last.fm list

You can move your music playlist from Last.fm, one of the most important online music listening sites in the world, to Google Chrome in a small window. To do this, simply visit the Web Store and install the Last.fm add-on.

2. Would you like a security consultant?

The sites that internet users routinely visit are usually obvious; But one day

If you want to turn the internet upside down by jumping from branch to branch, don't forget to take a site advisor with you. In this regard, we recommend the McAfee Advisor plugin, which instantly shows the reliability level of the sites you enter.

3. Back up all customizations and bookmarks

You can back up add-ons, sites you've been to, and bookmarks that you've uploaded to Google Chrome in just a few seconds. FavBackup software does this perfectly.

4. Customize the Start page

Google Chrome's start page usually brings up frequently visited sites, but you can use the Incredible StartPage plugin to create a more advanced and attractive landing page.

5. Replay YouTube videos

You can rewind any video you watch on YouTube without touching your mouse thanks to the Youtube Looper plugin. Usually those who listen to music or watch any educational video will like it.

6. Chrome's custom pages

Some internet browsers

in addition to their basic features, they also feature special pages. These pages provide access to the browser's cache folder, add-on area, and details such as memory usage. Chrome has about 10 different custom pages, and it will take time to get to each of them. Fortunately, the Google Page plugin helps us with this.

7. Your Dropbox account is at hand

You can integrate Dropbox, an online data storage service widely used in our country, into Google Chrome. So you can access your files by accessing your account as soon as possible. All you have to do is install the DropBox plugin in your browser.

8. Local weather

Especially in these precipitations, a short weather check before you step outside can prevent you from getting into difficulty. Chrome lets you quickly get weekly weather information for where you live. Just install the AccuWeather Forecast plugin.

9. Record YouTube videos in MP3 format

With Chrome, you can download any video you watch on YouTube to your computer in MP3 format. For this, you must install the plugin "Youtube to MP3" on Chrome.

10. Dominate flash video sites

Video plugins tailored to internet browsers are usually YouTube-oriented, but you can also find plugins that you can use on other famous video sites. One of them, the YouTube VideoGrab plugin, can be used not only for YouTube, but also for downloading videos from sites such as Vimeo, DailyMotion, Metacafe and Facebook. You can also download photos from flickr.

11. Convert bookmarks on toolbar to icons

With this little tip, you can make your bookmarks sorted on Google Chrome's toolbar appear as icons only. This will make room for more sites on the toolbar. Of course, you can also relax aesthetically.

12. Refresh Web pages automatically

You should frequently contact the F5 key to see if an email you send at a desk has received a response as soon as possible. Of course, this is a pretty boring situation, and we can adapt the same effort not only for email, but also for a message you send on forum sites and urgently waiting for your response. However, thanks to Chrome's "Auto Refresh Plus" plugin, you can eliminate this comfort problem.

13. RSS support for Google Chrome

Google Chrome doesn't yet have an integrated RSS reader, but you can eliminate this deficiency with a small plugin. Thanks to the tool called RSS Live Links, you will be able to quickly become aware of updates by subscribing to all RSS streaming sites. You can also categorize as you like by entering the plug-in settings.

14. Your bookmarks and passwords are with you everywhere

Xmarks, a common bookmark and password sync/backup service, also supports Google Chrome. As soon as you install the Xmarks plugin on Chrome, you'll have a chance to access all your bookmarks wherever you are.

15. Quickly search for an area you've highlighted

In order to search for a word or phrase that you normally highlight with the help of a mouse cursor, you first need to right-click on the highlighted area and then select the "Search in Google search engine" section, but thanks to the "Highlight to Search" plugin, you can get rid of this hassle. After the plug-in setup, a lens will appear for quick operation in the areas you highlight. You can start the search by clicking on it.

16. Have a proxy at the ready

Proxies (proxy servers) can quickly open doors that will allow you to access a website or service. At least there is no harm in resorting to such games to access banned sites in our country or on your workplace network. Chrome has a proxy plug-in called a 1-Click Web Proxy that you can always use.

17. All of Google's services are

actively using a few at hand. We can show Gmail, Google Reader and Google Docs at the beginning of these services. Of course, you must enter individual addresses for each service. It is possible to minimize this time. All you have to do is install the "Google Apps Shortcuts" plugin in your browser. The majority of Chrome users will be able to access the services provided by Google

18. Access your documents in Google Docs

You can access and view your files in Google Docs through Google Chrome. You also have the possibility to create documents quickly.
