I am satisfied with Google. Now it's being extended to Google Chrome. I appreciate it. All the best for Google.
ReplyDeleteWhere's the +1 button? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Branislav, I just added it (Plus One Anything) the list.
ReplyDelete+1 :)
ReplyDeleteCareful. Google+Facebook is, if not fully, close to being Malware. Aside from reading your stuff and transmitting it, it also inserts itself into signatures in GMail to promote itself, phones home, runs many analytics over pages that aren't even in the Google universe, and more. It also can not be uninstalled cleanly unless a lot of work is done.
ReplyDeleteNo love for the Like+1 extension?
ReplyDeleteWorks well in conjunction with a facebook like button extension. Now if we could get a +1+Like extension that would be even better, as I think the +1 button looks better.
Thanks Jonas!
ReplyDeleteNice Joshed, I added it, thank you.
ReplyDeleteI also have a simple, easy-to-use extension that allows you to jump to your friends' profiles via their shortnames. http://zipl.us/quickjump
ReplyDeleteWhere is the G+ share?
ReplyDeleteOlivier, do you have a link to that extension?
ReplyDeleteGPlus+ Search, this extension allows search into public google+ content, https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lgokneckoagpobobdfmiaflifhpbmfmd#
ReplyDeleteWould plusbar count as a must have extention, even if it's a bookmarklet? http://kosso.co.uk/plusbar/
ReplyDeletewill this site be the one to follow on all and new G+ extensions?
ReplyDeleteI just released my own extension which allows you to collapse posts while still getting updates on new comments. It also shows the notification status on a browser icon no matter where you are.
ReplyDeleteHere's the discussion on Google+: http://goo.gl/VwkwX
