Summary
There are many "Scroll to top" extensions out there, but they all add a button to the page or browser's interface. That's ugly and bad user experience.
How about clicking anywhere on the top or bottom right corner of the page (where there is usually no content) and scroll automagically? That's exactly what this extension will do.
This is a feature I encountered at Basecamp, so the credit goes to 37signals. I liked it so much that I developed the extension to be able to use it everywhere. I think it will be useful for everyone.
In the settings you can see usage stats about how much time this extension has saved you. Also you can add exceptions for the pages, where the double click is required to select text instead of scrolling.
Please note that it's not possible to use this extension on the Chrome web store website (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/) because of restrictions to JS/CSS, which are the technologies used in this and most other extensions.
-- Permissions:
- Fast Page Scroll will add the scroll action to the double-click event via Javascript on the pages that you visit.
- After the first installation it will open a new tab with instructions about usage, only once.
- This extension does not (and never will) inject any spyware, adware or other forms of commercial elements to your browser.
