Google Chrome cortex is a social media solution

Cortex, Joey Primiani a free Chrome browser extension, a simple circular interface that you click with Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr and used to post stuff does help.

Best design innovations always make you slap your forehead and
say, "Why do not we already had that for years?" Cortex, a free extension for Google Chrome web browser, I have the same feeling. It's easy as hell - just a small ring on the screen when you click mouse button on something you want to share through social media platform to hold - but this very simplicity is its genius. This immediately without moving the mouse, Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, or Instapaper for posting. I installed it immediately.



While it seems like nothing special when described in words, the interface design is actually several problems that stand in the way of current social media solves. A: Every website in a different place all adds social media buttons. So if you think "I'm sure my friend would love this story," there are at least scanning before you even find where the buttons are a few seconds. And then, being there is to log into other services. At best, that may take a combined 10 seconds. And that was cool for a long time that a story has second thoughts about, or decide that it is not worth bothering to begin with. Although a number of popular social media tools to use that "breakage" How, just seems to exist: How many times to share some of the rigmarole you stopped? If you're like us, it's time you stopped you actually follow through far more than the number of times. This is a very big problem getting people to share the interesting stuff is in the context.

Cortex, instead, a simple way that no matter where you are never change and that the social media sites that you never have to fiddle with a central entrance provides all offers. You also can to the Tumblr blog. In one swoop, the friction that exists in the process of sharing social media is all gone. Great!
