Some useful Google Chrome extensions that I use – Part 1

AdThwart: Blocks ads based on Firefox Adblock plus filter engine. I prefer this one to the others as it works exactly the same as Adblock plus on Firefox, and other seem buggy, up till now.
Google Mail Checker Plus: Checks your Gmail, adds a little icon to the upper right corner of the browser and provides nice visual and sound effects to indicate any new incoming mails
PanicButton: Don’t get caught :)), a single click or a keyboard shortcut can hide all your tabs and can even password-protect them not to allow anyone to recover the ones you’ve hidden
