The Internet is all about choices and that includes choosing how you browse it in the first place. Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari, the products keep coming at you, fast and furious, each one bringing its own features and capabilities to the table in the hopes of attracting you as a follower.

According to the article “7 Killer Google Chrome Extensions for Your Business”, Google Chrome accounts for over 31% of the web browser usage. So perhaps it may be prudent to check out some good Google Chrome extensions that would prove particularly useful if you are in business for yourself. Have a look these five valuable extensions.

There are more cool Chrome extensions out there than this person has fingers!

TweetDeck Chrome Extension

Seems like everyone’s on Twitter these days, doesn’t it? Unfortunately, it’s almost a separate job in itself to keep track of the people and topics most relevant to you or your business. Fortunately, TweetDeck makes it easy for you to not only track those real-time conversations that matter most; it also enables you to tweet from multiple accounts, sharing photos, links, and such.

LastPass

According to Internet security gurus, you should have a different password for every account and website that you access on line. That’s all well and good, and it makes a great amount of sense, but if you access a lot of sites, it can get confusing and frustrating. What are you supposed to do? Write them all down somewhere, and risk the paper being seen (sort of defeats the purpose of having passwords, doesn’t it?).

But with theChrome LastPass, all of your sign-ins are integrated securely, so you don’t need to spend eternity tracking down those many unique passwords that all sounded so clever when you first came up with them, only to forget them.

Evernote

Wouldn’t it be great if all of your notes, your data, all of your information that eventually finds its way onto your computer, could be stored in one central area, easily accessible by not only your laptop, but you mobile device as well? Wonder no more, for there is Evernote!

Type all of your information into Evernote and it’s stored safely. Retrieving that information is no big deal either, since Evernote’s search function is well suited for finding that one piece of data quickly and accurately.

Wave Accounting

Small businesses need to keep good track of their finances. By the nature of their size, a small business’ financial margin for error is much narrower than that of the big boys. That’s why every small business needs a good financial extension like Wave Accounting. Enter your expenses yourself, or link the extension to your credit cards and bank accounts and let it do the work automatically.

In addition, this versatile extension lets you accept credit cards, generate accounting reports, create balance sheets, and bill customers.

Buffer

Small businesses that want to keep up on what today’s online consumers are talking about need to keep on top of social media. Unfortunately, it takes time and energy to stay current in the social network scene. With the Buffer extension, you can share links, blogs, and other neat tidbits with your followers, easily and efficiently. It even has a scheduling feature so that you can release your content gradually, rather than turning on the fire hose, so that you look as if you’re there, typing away new updates in real time.

As mentioned at the start of this article, when it comes to web browsers, you are faced with a host of choices. It can be hard to compare them, since many of them have similar features or performances. But if you habitually perform large downloads and speed matters, the article “Top 7 Browsers For Massive Downloads” rates them for you.
