"something has blocked the sidebar..." I get this often, yet opening Settings and click "save changes" (without changing anything) puts it back to normal.

Sehr gute Erweiterungen. Besonders gefallen mir die Layout-Möglichkeiten (Schriftgröße, Zeilenabstand, etc.) sowie die Funktion „Check Bookmarks“, die es äusserst einfach macht, alte, doppelte und geänderte Lesezeichen zu bereinigen. Der Support ist ebenfalls sehr gut – ich erhielt eine schnelle Bestätigung, dass für „Check Bookmarks“ keines meiner Lesezeichen zur Validierung meinen Computer verlassen lässt.

Extensão rápida, fácil e simples de usar... um excelente exemplo do que deveria ser feito como padrão pelo próprio time de desenvolvimento do Chrome. Parabéns ao desenvolvedor!
