Open in Google Extension

Are you tired of copy pasting the name of the movie or tv show you found on some website on Google to see the rating or where you can watch it?

Well I was, I would spend a lot of time finding what to watch and then I had to open Google in a new tab and copy paste the name of the movie or tv show to check the rating, where to watch (Netflix, Hulu etc). It was frustrating because I would have to copy paste each name over and over again

To help this pain, I created this plugin which is super easy to use

Step # 1: Install the plugin. You will see a red green yellow search icon in your browser

Step # 2: Copy the name of the movie or tv show using the mouse

Step # 3: Click on the Google search icon. This will open the movie/show details in a new window
