Google Chrome Extensions - ViewThru

These next few posts are just quick posts about a couple of the extensions I use with Googles chrome browser.  This first one I use is called View Thru.

This is a great extension which allows you to see the full link behind a shortened URL.  Once you hover over the link it will display the full web address.  As you can see from the picture below.

 I find this to be very quick displaying the link, it was pretty much instant.  As there are more and more shortened URL's popping up and not all of them being legitimate links.  I recommend that if you are using chrome, you should install this extension.

Do you have any good extensions to recommend?, I would love to hear about some more that people are using.
