What is your most liked and/or most used Google Chrome extension?

Over the past few months I have moved away from FireFox and into Google Chrome as my primary internet browser and have learned to really like GC with some of the added extensions like TinEye, Google Mail Checker Plus (very close 2nd place), Piknik, Are You Watching This?! Sports, WOT, Tweetbeat Firsthand, but my new favorite is a screenshot extension that virtually replaces Jing for me and as of right now Webpage Screenshot is my number one favorite GC extension... what is yours?

Tip for best answer: M$1.52
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

My favorite is actually Chromed Bird, which is a Twitter extension. Since I keep Chrome open all the time I can see tweets, DMs, and mentions that show up as popups. Very convenient as opposed to running a separate Twitter client.

No problem! And as it seems that there has been an update recently, so when the notifications come up it has a timer bar that does a countdown, and when the countdown is up the notification disappears.

This might have been a coincidence but after I installed Webpage Screenshot, Chrome crashed. I had to uninstall to get it back. I was using iGoogle as my home page. It constantly refreshed after installing Webpage.

Maybe @morris003 I wish I knew how to fix or troubleshoot that.
I installed WPS about a week ago and uninstalled Awesome Sceenshot because AS would not let me right click copy the .jpg url of the image like WPS but that is the extent of my knowledge here. I use just plain old Google as my home page, I don't know if that matters.

Since I use firefox as my primary browser, the extension I use most on Chrome is type ahead find. It is not as good as the find as you type in firefox, but I love having it over having to press CTRL+F

I also use adblock (and browser button for adblock, better popup blocker, one window, google translate, and Flashblock,

Firefox was my goto browser for the last 5 or 6 years, but in the last couple months it has been supplanted by Chrome. As I made the transition, Xmarks was critical. Xmarks is still important because I use multiple computers and multiple browsers (I may switch back to firefox once 4.0 comes out of beta).

I have a lot of blogs that I follow.... And so I love my FeedSquare. It is AMAZING!!! I am able to sort through all my unreads with ease, and able to mark read just by simply clicking...

I do also like the Google Calendar... it allows me to easily add appointments and lets me know how long till my next event/appointment.

Oh, i also have Speed Dial. It allows me to choose how many screen shots are on the page when i open a new tab, and I am able to do alot with it... much better than having to scroll thru my bookmarks for the pages I go to often / daily.

We have screen shots on standard on Macs, that are not restricted to just web shots of one browser, making Webpage Screenshots unnecessary on Apple.
