Summer for Chrome Provides Biographical Details for People Mentioned in News Stories [Video]

Chrome: Keeping track of everyone in the news isn't easy. Summer is an extension for Chrome that provides short, biographical info on everyone mentioned in a news story without having to leave the page you're reading.

Currently, Summer works with about 60 different news outlets, including The New York Times, Forbes, ESPN, and more. When you're reading a news story on one of these sites, Summer shows a small tab on the right side of the screen that you can expand and learn more about the people mentioned in the story. When you select a person, you get a short bio, a recent YouTube clip, and a Twitter account (if they have one). For the most part, Summer is unobtrusive, but it's handy when you need it.
