Easily the most used extension in Google Chrome. I love it! It works great for SEO professionals who are trying to see how many characters they've typed into a field. Thank you to whomever created it. It really is a life saver.

This will save you endless hassle (and clicks) if you have to prepare metadata, standfirsts or other content to strict character limits in spreadsheets or other web apps. Get it!
