Summary
A powerful tool to personalize web pages on the fly. Can inject custom HTML, JavaScript and CSS to a given web page while it is being loaded by the browser. Very effective as an AdBlocker tool. Can significantly decrease page load time by preventing the browser from loading and rendering unwanted parts of a web page: most of the unwanted HTTP requests will not be even issued to the network! Such AdBlocker solution is very different from those that just hide ads with CSS styles.
There are "Standard AdBlocker" built-in rules that will be updated regularly. If you just want a general AdBlocker tool, this is for you! Just select the checkbox in the Options tab and you are in!
For those of you who knows a bit about HTML/JS/CSS this tool can let you be a "webmaster" of any web page! To add a new personalization rule, just click on the Options button in the extensions tab (chrome://extensions/). You will find it very easy to use, while having the power of making anything you want with the web!
Share your rule dumps or ask for a help to customize a web page in a dedicated discussion group: http://groups.google.com/group/personalizedweb. See some rule examples here: http://groups.google.com/group/personalizedweb/web/examples, including the "YouTube InFlash AdBlocker" rule.
The fastest browser is even more faster now! Enjoy surfing! :)
