Summary
Have a habit of opening too many links in your chrome browser and wishing to read all of them ? This is what I call link hopping. It presents us with some major problems:
- Too many links opened in your browser, resulting in huge sluggishness while working on other tabs.
- Your major work tabs are lost in the sea of many read later tabs.
- Bookmarking a links is for links which you liked and want to use for later reference.
- If you just want to finish reading links later and then delete them from your todo list this is the right extension for you.
- Save and Sync across all your chrome logged in browsers, with just a click of the button.
IMPORTANT: You need to be logged into Chrome and have your extension sync settings enabled in order to sync your links across devices. You can do this via chrome://settings/syncSetup. This will prevent you from losing all your links if you re-install Chrome or if you want to use it on another computer with your Chrome logged in.
UPDATE: 4.0.3
Allow backward compatibility with URL's not having timestamp.
