Power Twitter For Chrome
Update: The extension does not work anymore. It was last updated in 2011 and the most likely reason why it stopped working is that Twitter changed things around in the backend in recent time. At least some of the features offered by the extension are now available natively on Twtter. We suggest you check out other Twitter extensions for Chrome instead that have been released or updated recently.
If you are an active Twitter user you know that there are hundreds of scripts and add-ons to improve the popular online messaging service. From expanding shortened urls over inline viewers for media to interface changes, if you search long enough you are likely going to find exactly what you want Twitter to look like and function.
Power Twitter For Chrome is an extension for the Google Chrome browser that combines many of the popular features in one extension.
Probably one of the most thought after features is the automatic display of web page titles and urls of links on Twitter. Most links on Twitter make use of url shortening services to save space. The extension gets rid of the shortened url and displays the actual destination directly.
You also see direct options to interact with a message. Available options are to favorite, retweet or reply.
Media like YouTube videos or images are expanded automatically as well so that they can be viewed directly without going to the page they were posted on.
But there is more than those two handy features. The Chrome extensions adds links to the very top of Twitter which allow the user to post photos, shorten links, update moods or send free gifts.
Power Twitter adds a second column to Twitter which overshadows the original Twitter sidebar. It is possible to close that second column at any time. It is however useful as it can display information directly that would otherwise only be accessible on another page.
A click on a user displays Twitter information and the most recent Tweets of that user directly on the same page. That's handy.
Power Twitter for Chrome is a useful extension for users who visit Twitter regularly. Google Chrome users can download it from the Google Chrome Extensions repository

Martin, I would appreciate that you do not censor this post, as it’s informative writing.
Onur, there is a misleading statement “[…] GIFs are animated images …”. No, obviously you don’t seem to have take much notice of what you were told back in March regarding; Graphics Interchange Format (GIF).
For example, https://www.ghacks.net/2023/03/31/whats-gif-explanation-and-how-to-use-it/#comment-4562919 (if you had read my replies within that thread, you might have learnt something useful). I even mentioned, “GIF intrinsically supports animated images (GIF89a)”.
You linked to said article, [Related: …] within this article, but have somehow failed to take onboard what support you were given by several more knowledgeable people.
If you used AI to help write this article, it has failed miserably.
EMRE ÇITAK posts are useless because they are fraught with inaccuracies and are irrelevant.
AI is stupid, and it will not get any better if we really know how this all works. Prove me wrong.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4IYl1sTIOHI
Martin, [#comment-4569908] is only meant to be in: [https://www.ghacks.net/2023/07/09/how-to-send-gifs-on-iphone-two-different-ways/]. Whereas it appears duplicated in several recent random low-quality non relevant articles.
Obviously it [#comment-4569908] was posted: 9 July 2023. Long before this thread even existed… your database is falling over. Those comments are supposed to have unique ID values. It shouldn’t be possible to duplicate the post ID, if the database had referential integrity.
Don’t tell me!
Ghacks wants the state to step in for STATE-MANDATED associations to save jobs!!!
Bring in the dictatorship!!!
And screw Rreedom of Association – too radical for Ghacks maybe
GateKeeper ?
That’s called “appointing” businesses to do the state’s dirty work!!!!!
But the article says itself that those appointed were not happy – implying they had not choice!!!!!!

Many Authors of bloggers and advertisers certified by Softonic have joined the site, and the site is full of articles aimed at advertising and clickbait.

As it stands, except for articles by Martin Brinkmann, Mike Turcotte, and Ashwin, they are low quality, unhelpful, and even vicious. It is better not to read those articles.

By the way, if you use an RSS reader, you can track exactly where your comments are (I’m an iPad user, so I use “Feedly Classic”, but for Windows I prefer the desktop app “RSS Guard”).
RSS Guard: Feed reader which supports RSS/ATOM/JSON and many web-based feed services.

We all live in digital surveillance glass houses under scrutiny of evil people because of people like Musk. It’s only fair that he takes his turn.
“Operating systems will be required to let the user choose the browser, virtual assistant and search engine of their choice. Microsoft cannot force users to use Bing or Edge. Apple will have to open up its iOS operating system to allow third-party app stores, aka allow sideloading of apps. Google, on the other hand, will need to provide users with the ability to uninstall preloaded apps (bloatware) from Android devices. Online services will need to allow users to unsubscribe from their platform easily. Gatekeepers need to provide interoperability with third-parties that offer similar services.”
Wonderful ! Let’s hope they’ll comply with that law more than they are doing with the GDPR.
No, they didn’t lmao.

What does this article about Musk/Tesla have to do with computing, devices, phones?
More irelevant filler.
yeah sure… they are always the victims and it is only against them ????
Believe them 100% and never question anything. This lawsuit sounds like the type you heard when people were eating batteries.
