Recently at one of my district's Innovator Cohort meetings, our group started sharing out everyone's favorite Chrome extensions. I found quite a few new ones and thought I should share out my favorites.

What are some of your "go to" extensions?

Screencastify: ​Screencastify is a simple video screen capture software for Chrome.
Screencastify is the easiest way to Record, Edit, Annotate, Store, and Share video screen captures. Record a specific tab, or your whole desktop at the click of a button. And your whole experience is synced with your G-Suite.

One Tab: ​Whenever you find yourself with too many tabs, click the OneTab icon to convert all of your tabs into a list. When you need to access the tabs again, you can either restore them individually or all at once.

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with SEO? I'm trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords but I'm not seeing very good success. If you know of any please share. Kudos!
