Some useful chrome tricks

Well, this is my first post. To start with some interesting or useful stuff with chrome, here are some useful features you may consider
  1. Just like the task manager that we have in windows, chrome comes with its own task manger, whereby if you have opened 10 chrome windows (By the way chrome opens it up in a separate process) you can press Shift+Esc and see chrome's task manager. You can very well end process by selecting a chrome window.
  2. Bookmark synchronization. This is a killer feature that made me move away from FireFox. Go to Google chrome options and update the sync entry to sync bookmarks to your google account. Voila ! ! , go any where and just sign in to your google account, you get all your bookmarks synced up automatically. When you add a new bookmark or edit an old one, your bookmarks in your google account get updated.
  3. If you want more towards effectively utilizing your bookmarks, download extensions like Everymark/ Atomic bookmark extensions. They really help you search your existing bookmarks by key word search.
Ok, that's it for now., watch out for Chrome/FireFox plugin development in the next post. Thanks for viewing and bye for now :-)
