Ask HN: What's your top plugin/tool to help consume ever-increasing information?

Recently I discovered https://github.com/igrigorik/videospeed a chrome plugin. And now I can easily breeze through most videos on internet at 2x-3x speeds. It's been awesome! Saves lot of time and increases efficiency. It was a very pleasant discovery. Would love suggestions for similar everyday tool/plugins to deal with ever-increasing interesting content.

I use Imagus. It expands images on mouse hover. Basically you can look at facebook, amazon, and many other sites that use thumbnails by just hovering over the image instead of clicking on it and waiting for all of the additional crap to load.

Nice. This is quite cool. Just saw the linked xkcd comic by just hovering on the links in some of hackernews comments :)

I use google keep to save links, pictures, voice recordings right now. However, for long term storage, I have not come up with a great solution to keeping everything organized.
