My Favourite Google Chrome Extensions
These are my favourite Google Chrome extensions at the moment.
Protect your privacy. See who’s tracking your web browsing with Ghostery.
Basically what Ghostery does is it detects trackers, web bugs, pixels, and beacons placed on web pages by Facebook, Google Analytics, and over 500 other ad networks and blocks them.
Regain control of the web and surf more securely.
ScriptNo is very much like the famous NoScript for Firefox. In my opinion, it is the best plugin of that kind for Google Chrome.
AdBlock for Chrome! Block all advertisements on all web pages, even Facebook, Youtube, and Hulu.
The best way to block ads.
YouTube Options: disable ads, annotations, and auto-play; change resolution, display size, optional flash pre-buffering, looping/replay, SSL; download all available versions of the media (this will require installing the full version from the developers website).
If you often watch Youtube videos, you should get this extension.
Improves the Google Chrome pop up blocker by blocking pop up windows opened by javascript & other annoyances that it misses.
This will block all the annoying pop up windows.
