Webnerd.ai Chrome Extension Debuts on the Chrome Web Store
By Louis Gray · Permalink
Webnerd.ai Share & Subscribe is now officially public on the Chrome Web Store, bringing fast Classic RSS discovery and link-blogging directly to Chrome, Brave, Arc, Vivaldi, Edge, and Chromebooks. Install the extension, pin the pulse icon to your toolbar, and pair your existing session in one click at webnerd.ai/extension.
Built around three core workflows—subscribing to feeds into folders as you browse, adding individual stories to your Shared Items even without subscribing to the source, and cross-posting straight to Bluesky with your commentary—the extension runs on minimal activeTab permissions with zero background tracking. Read the full story and walkthrough in Louis Gray's announcement post on blog.louisgray.com.
