Facebook To-Go Google Chrome

This extension will notify you as soon as you get a notification with the number of notifications displayed in a badge on the icon. No need to click the icon or open Facebook to check for updates.

When you click on the icon you will see Facebook mobile which is blazingly fast and works great as an extension, here are a few of the things you can do without ever opening the full Facebook:

FlashBlock

The extension automatically blocks flash content on webpages.

Each flash element is being replaced with a placeholder that allows you to load only selected elements on a given page.

You can also manage a whitelist of allowed websites via a configuration panel.
