Works fine, but needs to be updated with a context menu option to fit in with the new Chrome configuration. Having extensions collapsed in the toolbar is a plus, except for apps that need regular access but don't provide access via the context menu. Previous note from the author references a context menu option when right clicking on a link, but the author apparently doesn't realize that **MOST PEOPLE** want to transform the page they are on, not a page they have not yet gone to.

Just tried a bunch and this is the first one to work (maybe my other extensions were blocking the others). Very nice/fast thank you.
