For me, this week seems to be starting pretty bad, so I can only hope you’re doing better than me. Just think about this – I tried two Google Chrome extensions that promised a lot just to figure out none of them is working. While the first one should get an update these days (an extension that will improve your experience with Google Image Search, you’ll surely love it), the other is supposed to work but, as far as I can tell, I still have to bump into a proxy tool to allow me to use pandora.com – until that happens, I keep my opinion that all proxy software is crap. Now, let’s take some screenshots, shall we?
Obviously, we won’t be taking any screenshots of my two failures today – Awesome Screenshot: Capture & Annotate is a Google Chrome extension that really works as it should, so we’ll stick to it. As its name should say it clearly, this browser addon allows you to easily capture the pages loaded into Google Chrome (whole page, only the visible part or a custom selection), annotate it using rectangles, circles, arrows and so on, blur sensitive info and, best of all, it comes with one-click upload for sharing the image on the Web and support for PNG when saving to your computer. Awesome!
The numbers look pretty impressive for a Google Chrome extension, since version 3.0.3, released on the 3rd of April, has a rating of 4.8/5 stars after 11,148 user reviews and no less than 381,208 downloads! Created by Diigo.com, Awesome Screenshot: Capture & Annotate is surely one addon every Google Chrome user should take for a spin, especially since most Internet users end up facing the need to take screenshots of a certain Web page, sooner or later…
