This app doesn't work now. :( EDIT: It works perfectly now! Thanks for the fix and for creating the awesome site :)

Excellent way to keep track of your reading and get reading recommendations from other smart readers (via the reading.am website). You can also download links to all your reads anytime. Can hardly wait to turn this into some cool data on reading trends.

I love the extension but had a big problem. For the last two and half weeks I have tracked everything I have read using the extension (and the yellow box has appeared in the top-right corner each time)... When I recently checked my account page at reading.am it had not tracked anything after the first five articles. Good extension but please create a warning or notification when articles are not being tracked.
