Chrome Users; What plugins do you use / recommend?

Hey guys.

Just wondered what Chrome plugins you guys use, and if there are any good ones I should look out for.

I'm trying to make my Chrome look sleek etc, but don't want to go over the top.

Any good recommendations?

    Unless you're using Gmail or Google Reader, none whatsoever.

    I used to use a Flash blocker but now I just do this:
    1. Click on the spanner and select Settings
    2. Choose Under the Bonnet from the list of available categories
    3. Click on the button marked Content Settings at the top of the page
    4. Under Plug-ins, select Click to play.

    Abine TACO

    AutoScroll (I have a trackball with no scrollwheel)
    Do Not Track Plus
    Flash Video Downloader
    Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on
    Sexy Undo Close Tab
    TabsPlus

    Used to use this one too. Slows the browser down a fair bit last time I checked.
