Overview

The official OMG! Chrome! extension

Stay up-to-date with the latest Chrome, Chromebook & Chrome OS news from OMG! Chrome!. This extension adds a button to your Chrome toolbar that lets you quickly preview new posts with a click. The toolbar icon will also display the number of items you have yet to read. When there are no new items the icon will turn grey. When a new post is published you'll get a Chrome notification bubble alerting you, though these can be turned off in 'Options'. Unread items have a red 'bookmark' logo to the right. To read an item just click its title or thumbnail to go straight to the post on OMG! Chrome! To mark all posts as a read click the 'Mark All As Read' text at the bottom the extension window. To mark a post as read without reading it simply click anywhere under the title. -- #Change Log v3.0.4 Fix broken feed URL Update branding Fix refresh button v3.0.2 Fix for Chrome OS v3.0.1 fix for permissions on Ohso websites More performance optimisations v3.0.0 Extension has been rewritten from scratch Faster response times Now uses significantly less memory when open No longer stays running in the background; works 'on demand' New graphic assets

Whoa, what's up with the new permissions? Reading and changing data for a wp site? Say what now? Sorry, but that's a loser.

No fear: it was a small bug on our part. We test our extension before uploading using data from a testing server. This is what that permission was asking for. We pushed an updated version of the extension an hour or two later with the correct site permission :)

I loved this extension because it kept me updated on the COS. However the comments are screened because of spam listings and my legitimate comments are not appearing. Please do not censor legitimate comments!

We don't censor comments so much as they get caught in the spam filter, sorry! We do go through the pending list regularly to find normal comments (bear in mind the spam filter also catches a huge amount of spam too, so it's not always easy). Glad you love the extension though! :D
