Clearly and IReader - Safari Reader in your Chrome and Firefox

If you are a Safari user and use the "reader" function you will find such functionality missing in Google Chrome / Firefox.

IReader @ Chrome

Safari Reader is a nice builtin function that makes reading long articles easy. It removes banners so the article looks more like reading a plain book.
There are 2 extensions I found nice.

1. IReader (Chrome / Firefox )
2. Clearly (Chrome / Firefox )


Clearly @ Chrome
Try both. Haven't read the code, but seems like IReader parses the HTML code on site load what makes site loading slower (it's just my assumption). When IReader is available for the page, new icon appears in omnibox.
Clearly icon is always visible in the extensions box.

Yeah.. I'm a strong chrome extensions opponent.. it makes Chrome slooower.

SAY NO TO FLASH POPUPS!

I've been a Firefox user for a long time.

After Google Chrome has been published I decided to check it out.
After 1 day I had to switch back to Firefox.

The reason?
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/10 (Firefox AdBlock plugin)

It's IMPOSSIBLE to watch the web without this plugin.
Flash plugins everywhere ... This is horrible.

People! Use this plugin, do not let manipulate and waste your time on
pages using this harmful type of advertising.

Boycote it! Let others know to not use it!
Admins, block ad hosts too!

I do not mean to fight with ads. I can watch ads, as long as it does not eat 100% of my CPU and some fuckin* flash poup appears! AARGH!!

THIS IS CRAZY!
