Hacker News Tweak Extension

Hacker News Tweak is a chrome extension to make HN more user friendly.
The extension will activate when you're on hacker news once installed. Unlike some other apps, you don't need to goto any page, so your bookmark won't increase.

Features:

-recover the 'best' link
-Make news title bigger. Highlight points count and comments count if very many.
-Add share function by AddThis. This will simplify sharing Hacker News to Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, weibo etc. Now be a social hacker.
-Add sort by heat function. This will make you quickly find the hottest(max pointed/commented) news in a single Hacker News page by one click.

Enjoy!
