User reviews
Le concept est excellent. En addition d'une extension comme "Zhongwen" (qui permet d'avoir une définition des caractères en les survolant avec le curseur), cela devient très pratique pour apprendre la langue. J'espère qu'il y aura des mises à jour.

This extension is an interesting way to absorb more Chinese characters. However, sometimes it is annoying and I'd like to be able to disable it more easily than having to go to the Manage Extensions page. Please add a Power On/Off button or something. I'd also like to see adjustable difficulty levels and a mouse-over to see more info/translate, with enlarged characters (coz some Chinese characters are SO difficult to see clearly).
