Top-10 Extensions for Google chrome for better browsing

Google Chrome is the Browser that combines minimal design with sophisticated technology.

There are many extensions available for Google Chrome at the Chrome webstore, but you should be extra cautious when installing those extensions as they will decrease Chrome’s startup speed very much. If you have a good processor and good amount of RAM then you don’t need to worry about it. Some extensions can make Chrome crash frequently and some may demand more resources.

    Nice list! Real Later Fast is great doesn’t work in the browser if you also use Speed Dial though since they both use “new tab”. Is there any way to make them work together in peace? i want them to be friends :-)
