Chrome Extensions to access Facebook and Orkut info with a click

Google Chrome 4 has two extensions very useful for all those social media addicts who start their day by accessing Orkut or Facebook like me.

orkut chrome and facebook

First is the Orkut Chrome Extension. It shows, all the new scraps, friend requests, group messages, and other types of alerts.

Second is the Facebook extension for Google Chrome. As before, it presents a small window of the browser and shows new messages from the social network.

Although,, in order for both the applications to work, you would need to login with your username and password for the sites and authenticate… Once that is done, the messages begin to appear in real time. This new chrome extension is worth the “effort” for three reasons:

-> The two extensions do not conflict with the performance of the browser,

-> Don’t have to signin to the websites in order to check updates all the time.

-> And finally, display updates in real-time.

If you are interested and want to try the new chrome extensions, you can download the Facebook Extension and Orkut extension from here. Do you use or know any other chrome extensions? share your comments below!
