11 Most Useful Google Chrome Extensions for Event Planner

Judging by statistics, every second user in Russia uses the Google Chrome browser. If this is not the case and you use Mozilla, Safari or IE, then I am sure that this material will push you to become an adept of chrome. You will find out how many advantages you have had under your nose all this time, and what a huge number of opportunities the use of extensions opens up to us. The browser has long ceased to be a program for simple surfing the Internet, but has turned into a universal tool with which you can perform dozens and hundreds of different tasks. Today I want to introduce you to the extensions that I myself use and that can help you in the difficult work of an event organizer.

<h2>1. OneTab</h2>

When you have hundreds and dozens of bookmarks open, the browser starts to slow down. With this handy extension, you can simply click on the extension icon and collapse them into a compact list that won't take up your browser's memory. To open this list and restore the tab you need, you just need to click on the icon again. By the way, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/onetab/chphlpgkkbolifaimnlloiipkdnihall?hl=ru" target="_blank">OneTab</a> stores all your minimized sessions by date, so you can get the one back at any time. The problem of a hundred open tabs is completely solved!

<h2>2. Google Mail Checker</h2>

The event manager should always be in touch, promptly respond to emails and direct contractors. If there are sound alerts and banners in Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail, then <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/google-mail-checker/mihcahmgecmbnbcchbopgniflfhgnkff?hl=ru" target="_blank">the Google Mail Checker</a> plugin will perfectly fulfill this role for Gmail. A simple plugin displays the number of unread messages in your mailbox, and a simple click on the button opens the mail. By the way, this plugin will be an additional incentive to achieve the coveted "Inbox Zero".

<h2>3. Signals by HubSpot</h2>

<a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/signals-by-hubspot/oiiaigjnkhngdbnoookogelabohpglmd?hl=ru" target="_blank">Signals by HubSpot</a> is an incredibly convenient life hack that allows you to track your emails. After installation, you will have a special extension when sending an email to Gmail (the Send button will turn orange and a checkbox will appear – track/do not track), Outlook requires you to download the plugin from the site. After that, by clicking on the application icon, you can see the details: when the user opened the email, where and how many times he viewed it.

<h2>4. Planner 5D</h2>

<a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/planner-5d/mcafejemebbngbglfoinpoaannbihjna?hl=ru" target="_blank">Planner 5D</a> is an application for creating room layouts and interior design. No special skills are required, the application is easier than any game. With this service, you can create an interactive 3D layout with furniture and interiors and detail the finishes. Then download it or take a screenshot and place it in your presentation. Make a simple diagram yourself and don't stress your designer if your work doesn't require more serious software such as Cinema 4D and SketchUp. In principle, for most layout schemes, a regular Paint or SketchPad extension will do.

<h2>5. SketchPad App</h2>

A kind of analogue of Paint, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/sketchpad/lkllajgbhondgjjnhmmgbjndmogapinp?hl=ru" target="_blank">SketchPad</a> has much richer capabilities. With its help, you can make a simple sketch or sketch your ideas. For all those who have not yet had time to properly master Photoshop. You can also consider it as a useful relaxing tool and "fuel" for creativity, many combinations and hundreds of gradients can captivate anyone.

<h2>6. Evernote Web Clipper</h2>

The easiest way to save, annotate, and share interesting content you've found on the web. From copying pages to marking up screenshots, <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/evernote-web-clipper/pioclpoplcdbaefihamjohnefbikjilc?hl=ru" target="_blank">Evernote Web Clipper</a> lets you save any content from your browser directly to Evernote, not just complete web pages, but also individual pieces that the app intelligently selects from your browser with a couple of clicks. You can also mark up with a highlighter, add text comments, figures and stamps, or save all your correspondence from your Gmail email along with attachments.

A good analogue used by the author of the article: Evernote Clearly (same features).

<h2>7. Pocket (ex: "Read It Later")</h2>

A light analogue of Web Clipper and Clearly, for all those who do not have time to understand Evernote. Install <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/pocket/mjcnijlhddpbdemagnpefmlkjdagkogk?hl=ru" target="_blank">Pocket</a>, register in the service, and when you click on the button, the material is sent to your pocket account (actually, "pocket"). Later you can read it on your other device. It's simple.

<h2>8. MusicSig vkontakte</h2>

MusicSig vkontakte is the easiest and freest way to download audio from VKontakte (you can use VKSaver for videos). After installing the VKontakte plugin, detailed information and a "download" button appear next to each audio recording. Now, you can always quickly find the music you need for the upcoming event, because VKontakte, at the moment, has the largest database. In addition, it adds hundreds of useful features for this social network. Let's keep silent about piracy, because we are not going to make money on this content.

<h2>9. Awesome Screenshot</h2>

As you might have guessed from the name, the extension allows you to take screenshots professionally: you can take a photo of the full screen or select only the desired area, after which it will open in editing mode, and you can add arrows, lines, captions, blur confidential information, then save the file or upload it to the online service and get a link in just a couple of clicks. Thus, the Awesome Screenshot extension is the undisputed leader in solving such problems.

<h2>10. StayFocusd</h2>

Do you need to turn in your presentation urgently? But it's so tempting to go to a social network, mindlessly scroll through the feedfeed... Stop... Stop... I have to finish it by tonight! Surely the same thing has happened to you?

The plugin increases your efficiency by limiting the time you can waste on websites. Once you're on a website and click on the<a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stayfocusd/laankejkbhbdhmipfmgcngdelahlfoji?hl=ru" target="_blank">StayFocused</a> button, you can set the amount of time during which access to that site will be blocked from your browser. Or even block access to the internet for an hour! Perfect for those who automatically type faceb..., vko... or event.ru... in their address bar.

<h2>11. TimeStats</h2>

"Don't think down on seconds"

In addition to StayFocusd. Every day we waste hours of time surfing the Internet and social networks. The TimeStats app will be an excellent scale for your "information diet". In it, you can see in detail how much time it takes you to visit various sites, as well as share the pie chart with your friends (you can make a hidden link). You will be very surprised how much time you are wasting. I hope that this will have a sobering effect, and you will draw certain conclusions for yourself.

<a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/167997?hl=ru" target="_blank">Instructions on how to install the extensions are available on the official Google website.</a> It's much easier than you think.

I really hope that after reading this material, you will really install and use something from the proposed list. Take it to your wall and share it with your friends so that they can also save their precious time with the help of these useful extensions. May the event-Power be with you!
