    • options.js
  • popup/
    • popup.js

Samples:

GRE Testing

This sample chrome extensions helps you study for the GRE in your browswer while you surf the net. Just a simple sample that I was thinking of while I was uselessly browsing the YouTubes.

Simple Twitter

This example ties into the Twitter UI by simplifying it. It essentially dynamically creates a link to a stylesheet in the so that certains styles are overrident to make the experience a bit simpler. Nothing too complicated, but helps demonstrate how you can use extensions to create a more desirable experience for you and others.
