Summary

Medium.com is a place for people to write posts and let people read them. By default, Medium doesn't count the number of words of a post you've written. Instead, Medium likes to tell users how long it will take to read an article.

This extension does what Medium doesn't and counts the number of words in a post. This count is subtlety displayed at the top of the page.

If you've ever wanted to write a post on medium.com that is a specific length, this extension will keep you informed of how long your post is.
