The web is so fast in reacting to new developments around and inside it. Within days of Google releasing it’s new service “Google Buzz” , we have a Google Chrmoe plugin for Buzz.
Google Chrome Plugin for Buzz works similar to Chromebird, my favorite twitter extension for Chrome. The notification icon sits next to the addressbar, and when you click on it, a small window pops out, with your Buzz, in a better format that the original page inside gmail.
Of course the Extension is still under development and these are the new features planned.
- Notifications: a number on the icon of how many new Buzzes you have
- Posting: ability to post (and post comments) from the extension
- Limiting Comments: so it only shows a few comments and has an “expand” link for more
- Like’s
Gotta keep a closer eye on this one, right guys ? Install it from here
There are number of gmail checker plugins for different browsers. Chrome also has couple of them. But here is an extension for gmail, that does some pretty smart stuff.
Gmail Checker Plus, has some cool features.
- 10 different icon sets, choose your favorite!
- Mail preview window
- Delete, archive, spam, star and mark as read functionality
- Google Apps support
- Mailto-links open in your Gmail or Google Apps Mail account
- Monitor all your labels
The mail preview window is my favorite feature. If you look at the picture here, you will get a good idea about how this works. Instead of just viewing the number of unread emails on your inbox, this window actually helps you reply, mark read or mark that email spam.
You can select how the plugin windows should look like. Change colors of the icons depending up on your taste. See them in action in the image below.
Now, go ahead and install this extension and play with it ! Install it from here … and dont forget to leave your feedback in comments !
