New extension (for Chrome Web Store) is almost ready for first roll-out. I think. I started it in August, then put it down for a while; until this past week. It has integration for Google+, Friendfeed and Twitter. I'd like to set-up both a trial + paid version, but I have to figure out the best way to do that.

Sweet! - Kelli H.
Hmm.. I still can't find any articles, blog posts, help pages that show real world examples of Chrome Web Store downloads that have been monetized via one-time payment. Are we in rainbow farting unicorn country here? - Micah
Rainbow farting unicorn territory. :^) I think I live there. It smells like posies. - Friar Ticket to Ride
There are Chrome extensions that are premium. But haven't seen one with one-time payment thingy. - AJ Batac
AJ, elaborate, please - premium in what sense? - Micah from FFHound(roid)!
Like LastPass chrome extension. You have free edition then you can grab the premium for $12/year. - AJ Batac
Ah, ok. Of course it looks like the payment is for the user's lastpass account / remote web server-controlled features - standard annual subscription web app model. - Micah from FFHound(roid)!
Hm, did more reading. Only web apps support charge at download (not extensions). I'm considering my own activation code method for the non-free additional features version. It's all just an honor system at root because any auth. system is in the client code, but I'd like to experiment with having a free & pro version. - Micah from FFHound(roid)!
More progress tonight. Just added Google Search to the sites that integrate with the extension. - Micah
From stackoverflow, Checker Plus for Google Calendar is an extension that requires you to donate in order to use certain features: http://stackoverflow.com/a.... I installed it, and it looks pretty neat. On the options page there are a bunch of features that are grayed out and say "donation required." - chrisofspades
Thanks, chris - *pops new tab open...* - Micah
