Summary

The idea behind the extension is that to "follow" what your reading in a more up to date and in a social form. When you read a article on a website then its probably written a few hours ago, so its newer news than a paper version, but with #CFinder you find the "now" news.

The goal is that one day #CFinder can replace rss feed.

Push our #CFinder icon when you are surfing a page. It will instantly give you some keywords about the page your viewing now.

On the top you have three buttons: Twitter, Facebook and Google, with a push of one of them or the button bellow; "CHOOSE ALL", you will be sent over to the following pages where relevant reading material will be found about the page you was visiting.

You can also choose to delete and add keywords, the final keywords will be what defines the result on Twitter, Facebook and Google.

With this you will see the newest news about what you was reading about, but also in a more social way. You can see what other sites have written about it, or what other people have written about it.
