What is Rock Hand?
"Rock Hand" is a unique Chrome extension that turns your ordinary cursor experience into a rocking one. It replaces the default hand or pointer cursor with a hand making the rock 'n' roll sign. Enabled on all websites except Chrome Web Store. It only requires 'Your data on all websites' permission but it doesn't read any data. To disable or uninstall, simply navigate to Chrome settings.

Summary

PS: The rock hand cursor extension is disabled on chrome web store pages (where you probably are now), so after installing go to another page to make this extension rock your world.


Make Chrome rock with this extension that replaces the normal hand/pointer cursor with a hand doing the rock'n'roll sign!

Update: Version 1.1.0 should make the rock hand cursor display on many more pages, sorry for not fixing this before!

To uninstall/disable click the settings icon (looks like a wrench) in Chrome and choose Tools -> Extensions. Find Rock Hand and click Disable or Uninstall.


PS #2: Rock Hand needs the "Your data on all websites" permission, but it doesn't actually read any data from the websites you visit. It's just needed so I can insert the rock hand cursor on all pages.
