What is JSON Finder?
JSON Finder is a handy, robust Chrome extension specially designed to provide an improved JSON browsing experience. Emulating the functionality of Finder in OSX, it enables users to navigate through JSON elements with the ease of a mouse or arrow keys. Apart from basic browsing, JSON Finder offers the ability to mark deep objects or arrays, highlight matched keywords during search, and provides support for browser back/forward navigation. The extension’s efficiency is boosted with the significant codebase migration to Backbone.js. Its updated versions promise fixes and enhancements making JSON Finder an essential tool for handling JSON.

a must-have tool for web development. I love it for 2 reasons: 1) it's a lot faster when I move around with arrow keys than using mouse 2) I can search the data I'm looking for in json!

I like the visuals, but it doesn't work on online JSON files that do not report them selves as json files, like so many other JSON formatters.
