  9. Update 2: FYI, we hate that Chrome says we need access to your "browsing activity" (as do most extensions). We will not steal your data!
  10. Update: If the Chrome extension tells you we are asking for more permissions, we aren't really: Just re-enable. We need to see our API. Thx.

  12. Note: When we say "New" for the futz.me Chrome extension we assume your Chrome has already auto-updated. You can wait or force it to 0.1.15.
  13. New: The "/s" or "to screen" option just got smarter. Now: Open Chrome on PC1, then PC2, then close PC2...and PC1 will get alerts again.
