My Extensions

In class, we have begun looking into certain extensions provided from the Google Chrome app store. These are the one's to pique my interest:

1. Pandora: I like to use Pandora for when I have writing to be done and I need something nice to listen to. This app provides me the ability to instant start listening to tracks from my Pandora. Saves me the effort of searching for the site. It's a minor app; namely one the someone could live without, but even the most minor of efforts are great strides for someone as horribly lazy as I.

2. Evernote Web Clipper: I use this to get articles, pictures, or just reminders on what to look at often. With Evernote Web Clipper with a press of a button you can instantly save a page, article or picture to your Evernote for future reference. This is really only useful for those people who often save Word documents, or something like it, just to remember various pages, pictures or articles they had come across over their Internet searches. It's more useful than it sounds, as it is useful more by each different person and perspective.



3. Ad Block: Ad Block is probably the most pivotal app for generally everyone. No one likes ads and no one cares what they have to say. With Ad Block you can block all the ads off of the pages and precede in your Internet shenanigans with no problems. This is especially useful for slower Internet connections where it takes more time to load a page due to the ads, but with Ad Block, even the slowest of Internet connections can become manageable with Ad Block. Not to mention how much faster an already fast Internet connections could become.



4. Weather Channel: This is the app I use the least often, as weather is usually my last concern, but it is still useful, especially for days where you plan on being outside. It shows you the forecast for the current day and a few days afterward, so it becomes much easier to plan out your days or what days you should be concerned on when driving. It's situation and I don't believe you would need it everyday, but it is still useful when you decide to take a look, even though, just like news weather, it is possible that the forecast could very well be incorrect, so take everything with a grain of salt.
