Whether you’re writing a term paper for your classic Greek literature class or collaborating with your lab group over IM, Google Chrome extensions can also help you keep track of all the important things you have to do during the day. For our last post in the series, we will highlight a few Chrome extensions to help you stay on task while in school.

Suppose it’s late at night and you have a big exam in the morning, but you’re still watching random videos or playing games on the web. StayFocusd lets you control where you spend your time online by limiting the amount of time you spend on specific web sites. You can also customize your settings to block or allow specific sites or pages.



If you’re like many students who are juggling academics, athletics, a part-time job and social lives, there are so many ways to lose track of your busy schedule. DayHiker is a great extension to help you keep track of upcoming deadlines and meetings. It lets you check your schedule or tasks, preview upcoming events and even check out the weather forecast at the same time.



RemindMe is another useful extension that allows you to set up reminders, so you don’t forget to email those lecture notes to your study group or miss your next class.



We hope these extensions help students like you make the most of your time during the school year. You can find more useful Chrome extensions in the gallery, and if you don’t have Google Chrome yet, you can get the browser here.
