Mentionitis Extension

Mentionitis provides in-page link bookmarking, information searching, and browser/tab management tools.

Reduce reliance on new tabs to carry out every day tasks such as:

- Bookmarking linked websites
- Searching for terms, companies, or noteworthy people mentioned within website texts
- Using the built-in English dictionary to making reading easier

Why install Mentionitis?
- You can easily set reminders to revisit links you have bookmarked
- You can manage your bookmarks and tabs/windows from one central local
- Traditional modern browsers are memory hogs when many tabs are open. With Mentionitis, new tabs are only opened when necessary.
