@sachin_londhe7 Haven't seen an ad in years with Adblock
Gabriele Sangrigoli
@sachin_londhe7 I find Adblock to be little ethical. The deal is: you get free contents, in exchange you have to see some ads.

@sachin_londhe7 @weijianlin I had used pushbullet in past but uninstalled it. Found it little clunky and there was a lag. Is it better now?
Joshua
@sachin_londhe7 yes Pushbullet is amazing!!

Screencastify to make screenshots and screen recordings, and save them in the cloud, and get easily a link to share with the team.
@jorrit_baerends1 is the quality as good as QuickTime or is this more an analytics tool?
Diane Prince
Loom for recording quick videos to send to my clients and to my team. I also sometimes use it for making YouTube videos.
Luke Button
@diane_prince This is the only extension that is required IMO
Sameen Ahmed
Extensify to hide extensions 😁
Cogscid
@sameen_ahmed why just not to resize extension area natively?

@stefan_smiljkovic This is a great list Stefan. I noticed Automatio as well. Will check out, used instant scraper and webscraper but not fully satisfied.
Gabriele Sangrigoli
@stefan_smiljkovic No prob, just post several comments. I'll read them :)

* OneTab - key for staying organized, saving things for later, and not bringing my computer to a halt with 100 tabs open * 1Password - do yourself a favor and protect your information (pro tip: use the autogenerated passwords for security questions too) * MeasureMate - really helpful when reviewing designs (be careful, sometimes it combines pixels from a border into the length) * Loom - sometimes a video is just way easier for communication to the rest of the team * Pocket - I always have something to read on the go

Loom, Zapier, and Grammarly

@dafnihnd uh, Grammarly! I was planning to try it. Do you think is a really well made product?
Dafni Chontou
@gabriele_sangrigoli it's pretty cool and simple! Corrects my grammar and I always enjoy learning what's the tone of my writing (formal/ informal, appreciative, confident, etc.)

I have a lot but I will mention just one: 👉🏼 Jitsi Meet: https://meet.jit.si/ The Free Zoom, and to set up a video call is just a click away - and the links are re-usable, no limits just free.

Just discovered GoFullPage - screenshot of the entire vertical page (not just whats visible on screen). Super useful for design, product folks.
Sofya Narbut
@singhanurag it is super useful, I'm with you on that one!!
Checker Plus for Gmail is critical for anyone with >1 gmail address. Provides a unified inbox directly in the browser window; I use Spark for my desktop email app but its nice to have easy access in Chrome as well. Jason Savard, the guy who made Checker Plus, also has similar extensions for Google Calendar and Google Drive as well.
