Tool Time Friday | Gonna get you hypered

When I first checked out Hyperwords, I was dubious—I think we’ve all grown a little tired of the same context menu search tools—and this one looks particularly bloated, to boot. As it turns out, Hyperwords is so much more than the traditional context search tool we’ve gotten to know. Check out the video and hit the jump for a better idea of what Hyperwords can do for you.

This is one of those extensions that threw in the kitchen sink when they were making it, so there are bound to be features you want along with features you don’t want or like; luckily, it’s very configurable so you can turn off any features you’re not into without too much trouble. If you like it, it will probably replace a few other extensions you’ve already installed (like the beloved Auto Copy). If you do any language translation or unit conversions, Hyperwords’ inline replacement alone is a huge time-saver.

By the way – With Hyperwords you can select any word on any web page and choose from powerful commands, including:

• Reference • Search • Translation • Conversion • Email • Twitter • Facebook • Tag • Blog • & More.

See ya!
