Asana Quick Add + Extension

This is a different implementation of Asana's Quick Add Extension.

Quickly add your notes, website research and archive it as attachment to Asana, from any web page or Chrome window.

Note down things with an always-on-top Asana window when making research.

Native Asana interface, allows everything that the full-blown Asana allows - tagging, adding to projects, leaving task unassigned, inserting a whole window of tabs and by default attaches an archival copy of the open website(s) for your own research purposes.

The permissions are required for saving the archive of the currently open tab/window. In the future I'll post an alternative version without that feature.

The source is on GitHub.

Karen Sergeant (ID: 0000007589928adf) Voted 2 ★ - Updated 10/08/2015 This is slow - and even with panels enabled, it's still a stand-alone window that's created & takes a second or two to populate down in the lower corner of my screen. If these aren't the expected results: please do re-write the Overview page & Options sections to be very clear on what config needs to be in place. There's just no info on there.

Neil Hart (ID: 0000006bec6c1862) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 07/01/2014 Would be great, but for some reason it always pops up in a very large window. Am I missing something?
