This extension is fantastic and feels like a feature Gmail should offer by default. It’s incredibly convenient to add simple notes to the top of email threads. While other extensions offer similar functionality, this one stands out because it allows you to view your notes directly from the inbox view as well, albeit truncated if they are long.
