It seems very useful but really need a way to open the results in a new tab so plenty of space to show the list, or a way the user can define the popup window size, & also not to make it hover in available space, rather than cut off if it is 'outside the window'. It is extremely annoying how so many 'extensions' have very small display windows, far smaller than the minimum allowed size for the browser window itself, which is absurd, because it forces us to scroll like crazy & very inneficient because can't scan or remember everything at once in a tiny little microscopic window. You are literally throwing away 90% of the space you could be using to display results. The 'display results in a new tab' can fix all of that (if you don't cripple it by only using part of the space, like some crazy extensionsforce a 'line wrap' way before the edge of the window =)) More ideas at 'balkanguy (at) live (dot) com' =D

Не понравилось то что при переходе по ссылке найденного слова далее на странице Она не подсвечивается и непонятно где вообще находится

It's okay, but a much better search tab chrome extension is the suburb tab manager, TABLI, which, in a side-by-side comparison with this app, showed many more open and closed tabs with the search word.
