    @Aibek nice job on finding the secret extension. :) It wasn’t quite ready which is why we didn’t promote it. However, the new and improved extension is up (awesomehighlighter.com/user/welcome), so check it out if your having problems.

    Thanks for the interest! It will be available in the next couple of days. We will also release a bookmarklet around the same time. You can reach me with good ‘ol email(about page of the site) or at twitter.com/lukebrdn if you have any more questions, or suggestions, or if you just want a new follower.
