Here’s a list of 5 whiteboard extensions for Google Chrome which you can use to quickly jot down ideas that you have. Our brains work all the time, but sadly most of us are forgetful. When we think of something, we end up forgetting about it very fast. That’s where whiteboards can be helpful, but not just there. They can also be used to develop ideas for work, school or any other type of project.
If you’re a Chrome or a Chromebook user, with the following extensions you get whiteboards inside of Google Chrome.
Tab Sketch
Tab Sketch is a standalone whiteboard extension for Google Chrome with the help of which you get a whiteboard instead of the usual new homepage.
If you open up a new tab without having Tab Sketch installed, you will see the standard homepage. With Tab Sketch on the other hand every time that a new tab is open you get a whiteboard where you can start drawing right away. So every time that you get an idea, you just need to open up a new tab. Press Ctrl+S to save the created whiteboard image.
