No parece funcionar. Cuando busco un artículo no aparece en la pestaña del menú de Chrome y lo que hace es abrir una pestaña nueva en el explorador. No me ha gustado nada, no es lo que busco.

loads extremely slowly. very annoying.

With the latest chrome version, the typing focus is no longer set to the search box automatically when i click the search icon... that means i need the click 2 times before i type something to search, this is not ideal.
