BitLet 4 Chrome

Downloading torrents is now easier with Google Chrome and this new extension we created.
It's called BitLet 4 Chrome and you can find it on Chrome's Extension Gallery.

Here's how it works:
The BitLet 4 Chrome extension makes it easier to download files with bittorrent using your chrome browser.
Once installed, your browser will detect all the links to torrent files within the pages you're browsing and it will make those links open BitLet's download popup, allowing you to start downloading in a few clicks.

The extension itself is Open Source: you'll find the source code at http://github.com/abahgat/BitLet4Chrome

Great minds think alike I guess :) haha. I've been using the Bitlet Bookmarklet as a "Userscript" in Chrome lately.....until I found that it interfered with some pages....I guess when it would scavenge the source looking for .torrent links it would cause weird screen flickers to occur! haha.

I'll have to try this and see how it works out.

Only other "workaround" I was thinking of was trying the @include so it would only execute the javascript on certain domains (mininova, bittorrent, ubuntu, openoffice.org, etc).

If you're curious how it looked, I put it up on pastebin dot com slash Ph5nEYK8
