Description

The GIF Orcale Chrome Extension is an easy to use and fun way to get random animated GIFs using the Giphy API.

Features
==========
Highlighted Word Search
----------------------------

The GIF Oracle allows you to highlight any word and search for a random GIF associated with it. Just highlight the word, right click to bring up your context menu, and The GIF Oracle will search for it. Once a result has been found, it will appear as a Google Notification. The user then has the choice of opening the GIF in a new tab or copying the URL of the GIF to the clipboard for easy pasting anywhere on the Internet. These functions can also be used directly from the context menu. All results are also stored in Chrome's Notification Center for easy access to previous searches.

Omnibox Search
-------------------

If a user wishes to search for a random GIF based off a particular term, they can do so with the Omnibox. By typing oracle into the Omnibox, the search box will then take the input and search for a random GIF. The result will then be displayed in a notification as normal.

About
========
This Chrome Extension was made as part of Carnegie Mellon Heinz College's Internet Technologies class in Mini 1 of the Fall of 2014 by Zac Lovoy with the help of Kevin Chen and Matthew Hsieh. Logo was provided by Jane Yoon.

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!
