It allows me to keep track of my project time across multiple projects within the day. My favorite “new to me” Google Chrome Web Store App is called Task Timer. Which browser apps do you use? Eventsįor those of us that do a lot of project work, especially when working across multiple projects, tracking time for tasks across those projects can be both tricky and incredibly important for billing purposes. They save time so I see them as critical productivity tools. These are five of the apps that I use regularly. There’s no need to go to your Dropbox folder and dig for files. QuickDrop Explorer makes it handy to locate and share files right from the browser. Like many of you I use Dropbox to store and share a lot of my files. I use it mostly for quick access to Google Drive and the translate function.

Once logged into your account, you can quickly access all of your Google content. The Black Menu for Google provides really fast access to some key Google functionality.

To me it’s like dog-earing a book versus using some fancy-schmancy bookmark. I do have other apps that I use for bookmarking and saving for later, but I use this quite a bit because it’s just so simple. With it I can mark articles that I am reading or want to read later. Mark As Read sits in the address bar and looks like a document. Watch the video below and you’ll see what I mean.Ĭlick here to view the video. Without the IE Tabs app, I have to download the files first and then insert them. When I want to add clip art or other graphics from the Microsoft Office Online, I can click and drag it straight to the PowerPoint slide, right from the browser. The IE Tabs app acts as if you’re in Internet Explorer so it means that you have the same capability. There are some things you can do in Internet Explorer that you can’t in other browsers. If you use PowerPoint, then this is a must-have app.

Here are five of the extensions I use quite regularly. I love them because they’re always at my fingertips and save me time.

I’ve come to depend on them as I use many online services to help me build elearning courses. After I installed my Chrome browser I was glad to see that everything sync’d properly, especially some of my favorite browser apps and extensions. This weekend I reinstalled my operating system.
