Send URL

Implements a button to send page URL (link) via email.

What is Send URL?
Send URL is a handy Chrome extension that tweaks your emailing process by enabling you to quickly send the URL of any webpage via email. The extension adds a button next to the address bar. When clicked, it opens a new send-mail window (for example, Gmail), populates the email title field with the webpage title, and places the webpage URL in the body of the email. This extension uses the 'mailto:' protocol, hence, the operation and format may vary based on your system settings and chosen email client.
