If you’re a web developer, you’re likely already familiar with Chrome extensions like Firebug, SEO for Chrome, Mozbar and so on. However, I recently discovered a handfull of hidden treasures in the Chrome Web Store that you may not know about.
1. WhatFont
This is an incredibly helpful tool. You can do almost the same thing (with the exception of source info) with Firebug, but you might still have to do a bit of digging through code. WhatFont is much easier, faster, and intuitive.
2. PageRank Status
All the other developer I mentioned will basically tell you the same thing, but this extension shows the page rank of the current open page in the extension icon. It’s nice to be able to glance at it while your browsing as apposed to opening the extra window (below) every time.
3. Color Pick
This tool makes it so easy to match the color of anything… not just images.
4. Keyword Density Tool
In my job, keyword density is extremely important. I’m always shuffling between tabs to copy and paste URLs into keyword density analyzers and this tool does it right from the same window.
