Full summary

A fork of the popular plugin, "The Great Suspender", removing all of the malicious code, This is a lightweight extension to reduce chrome's memory footprint. Perfect if you have a lot of tabs open at the same time. Tabs that have not been viewed after a configurable length of time will be automagically suspended in the background, freeing up the memory and CPU being consumed by that tab.

With this extension, you can create and open *.url, *.webloc and *.glink files directly from your Google Drive. Keep your files and links/bookmarks all together in your Google Drive.


Update on August 2014: solves issues caused by Google's Picker API update.
