EDIT: Extension has stopped working and has been that way for months :/ Not too shabby. My old whois extension disappeared and this seems to fill the gap nicely. One suggestion is that the entire whois information should be shown in that tab, not a big fan of needing to open a new tab.

Works better than what I've found so far.

Works just as expected! Quick and easy to read, actually shows the info in the browser rather than just a redirect.
