Extension summary
Summarizer will save you the time-consuming pain of reading long articles and comments. On any website, you can select a long, boring article, right-click and summarise it in a few sentences!
This even works for those long PDF publications from prestigious universities you don't want to read.
Additionally, for you Redditers out there - good news! Long comments are automatically summarised, with any "tl;dr" placed at the top of the comment, along with the automatically-generated summary.
New Features:
- Automatic Imperial-to-metric converter for lengths and weights - across all sites!
- Improved summarizer will detect sentences better.
More sites and features to come! Tell me what you want in the feedback section.
Feedback is important to me and hope this extension saves you time too. Let me know of any bugs (currently in Beta) or features to add.
