We are all trying to find the next productivity
hack.However,did you know that the key to getting more done might be in your browser?
Google's Chrome Web Store is chock-full of cool add-ons for your browser.
But,with Chrome gaining popularity,the Chrome Web Store too has become like Apple's App Store:Bloated and hard to navigate.
So to save you from the trouble,we've found some extensions guaranteed to keep you focused and productive during working hours.
1. AdBlock:
Adblock may be the most popular Google Chrome extension out there.
The extension removes the annoyance of banner advertisements from your web experience.
That may seem like a slight difference,but visiting some sites that tend to bogged down with such ads can really improve your experience.
Adblock also works with Safari,Opera and Firefox if you don't have a Chrome.
2. Chrome Remote Desktop:
Chrome Remote Desktop isn't technically an extension,but allows you to access other computers from your own and vice versa.
Left a file at work? Connect up via Remote Desk and grab it.It's also an easy way to share your screen with someone else if there's a problem.
3. Delicious Bookmark Extension:
The Delicious bookmark Extension makes sharing links quick and easy.
No longer you have to copy and paste a link into an email,spawning a chain that may earn you the resentment of your colleagues.
We think sharing links is an integral part of the work experience.Delicious makes that task quick and easy,freeing you up to focus on other things.
4. Chrome To Mobile:
Chrome to Mobile is an easy way to take whatever you're working on with you when you leave the office.
The extension lets you take live webpages and work on the go by replicating your desktop browser experience on your smartphone.
It works offline too,in case you need to get stuff done in a dead zone.
5. Google Mail Checker :
Google Mail Checker is a no-brainer for anyone who sends and receives email on a daily basis.
The extension shows you how many unread messages are there in your inbox without your having to click/tab over and check.
Like many Chrome extensions ,Google Mail Checker saves your precious time.
6. Mighty Text:
Mighty Text does what iMessage has been letting Mac users do for a while:Send texts from a computer to other phones.
Like iMessages,the extension sends you a notification when you receive a message.
Until Mightytext there was no easy way to communicate from your computer to Android phones.Now you'll never have to worry about what kind of smartphone your colleague has.
7. Nimbus Screenshot:
Nimbus Screenshot is a great tool for Windows users everywhere.The extensions let you take quick and easy screengrabs.
Like Chrome Remote Desktop,Nimbus can be great tool for communicating with colleagues or showing someone exactly what you're looking at,when words just don't do cut it.
8. Web Blocker:
Website Blocker is great if you're the type of person who gets easily distracted by Facebook or Twitter.
As the name suggests,this extension allows you to block access to certain domains for a given period of time.
It also works on the Incognito mode ,so you can browse safely without distraction if you so choose.
9. Pocket:
Pocket is an easy way of put things aside when you're got work to do.
If you come across an article or website that's too long for you to look into-but you're still interested--hit the pocket extension and that article/website will end-up in your Pocket queue.
All you need is the free app to access your content on your schedule.
10. Search By Image:
Search By Image helps you identify things you see online.It is literally Google Images in reverse.It's specially useful for identifying a location or unfamiliar landmark.It'll save your time and impress your friends.
11. FVD Downloader:
FVD Downloader lets you save videos you find online easily and quickly.
There is one drawback that it doesn't work with YouTube Videos.However,for the rest of the internet(Facebook,Vimeo,etc.) you're set!.
Thank You!!!
