Extension summary

Places the Google+ notification count in parenthesis in the document title located in the page tab. While you are viewing pages in other tabs, you can see how many notifications you have in Google+. The count is placed at the beginning of the title so that it can still be seen when the title is long, such as when you are viewing a profile. If you pin the tab or, depending on the size of your window, have a lot of tabs open then this extension is useless.

1.1 update:

  • Fixed potential issue when count is greater than 9

1.2 update:

  • Title now only shows the count when there are notifications

1.3 update:

  • Updated manifest version
