15+ useful Chrome Extensions you might not have heard of

Deozaan:
Are you aware that your Adblock extension is not from the same folks who made the wonderful Adblock Plus for Firefox?

For that one you need to go here: Adblock Plus for Google Chrome (Beta)

I use FlashBlock and am generally happy with it. The one feature I wish it had (which it may and I haven't found it yet) is to load *all* Flash objects on a page *one time only*/on-demand. Often times I find myself going to a site that has 5 or 10 *separate* Flash elements on it and having to click each one to enable is annoying, yet I may not want to white list the whole site permanently either. Maybe even a "temporarily white list this site" would be nice, so I could continue browsing the site that session even. Otherwise it's great though, no sudden Flash surprises! hehe.

Thanks for the info.  Mostly I just want to screen out sudden noise as I mentioned. I don't watch online video very often.  Maybe Leo Laporte on Twit TV now and then. :)

I'll give it a try.

SKA:
Will these extensions work with Chromium or Srware Iron ?
Or they are only for Google Chrome ?

Thanks
SKA

Thanks for this tip :)

There was a nice tidbit on a page for Adblock Plus for Google Chrome extension regarding the initially mentioned Adblock extension, FWIW:

Please note that there is another extension called "AdBlock", which is not related to the Adblock Plus movement but also works great.

All the Chrome extensions I've tried have worked in Chromium.  Iron I've had some that wouldn't work because the folders are not what the extensions expect.  I think Chromium you have better compatibility than Iron.  But I haven't tried Iron in 6 months or so.

I've been using Chromium nightly builds. Currently I'm using 14.0.786.0.  The only problem I'm running into is bookmark sync dupes.
