Description

Looking for an easy way to stay up to date with the latest Ubuntu news, Linux app releases, and open source developments?

Add the official omg! ubuntu! extension to your Chrome (or Chromium-based) browser! Our free add-on can show you a dropdown list of the 27 most recent posts published on the blog, complete with handy thumbnail.

When new posts are published you get a discrete notification. The toolbar icon will also tell you how many unread posts there are.

Don't want notifications? You can turn them off in the settings page.

Unread items have an orange 'bookmark' emblem to the right. To mark a post as a read click the white space before the bookmark icon. You can 'Mark All As Read' by clicking the text in the footer of the extension.

To read an item just click its title to go straight to the correct article on the omg! ubuntu! website.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
