Google Maps is undoubtedly one of the best ways to get precise directions or just to get an idea of where you’re headed. It isn’t just useful on a mobile devices, and might very well be used just as much on desktops. Quick Maps is a Chrome extension and Firefox add-on for Google Maps that can display the map for any location within a webpage. The map opens as a pop-up in the same tab, and allows you to pan around or zoom in/out of the location. The extension will either automatically detect an address on a webpage and show the map for it when you position your cursor over it (seems to depend on how an address is written), or you can manually open the pop-up by selecting the address and sending it to the extension from the right click context menu.

Fav-Links: Save, Organize & Launch Favorite Website Links From Desktop
Fav-Links is a lightweight desktop application that helps organize and launch favorite websites from an overlaying pop-up window. The idea behind Fav-Links is to provide users with easy access to their favorite websites in a single click. You can create, rename, search, delete and backup your favorites, and save them as bookmarks within different categories. What makes Fav-Links quite handy as compared to conventional browser bookmarks, is that you can bring forth the overlaying UI with a custom hotkey combination, and instantly launch your desired website from the overlaying window.

After you’ve installed the extension, a menu is displayed across all webpages you visit, highlighting all the links within that page. You can move and resize this panel, and access it through keyboard shortcuts. Additionally, you may search and multi select different links. This extension can especially come in handy for users who don’t have a mouse, and only have access to a keyboard.
