QMachine (QM) is a web service that can incorporate ordinary web browsers into a World Wide Computer without installing anything.
This app for the Chrome Web Store enables users to exceed the paltry 5MB quota that their browsers allot for IndexedDB and/or WebSQL. QM does not require that this app be installed in order to function correctly, but if your workflow uses either of those in-browser databases, you may find the app to be very useful. Otherwise, this app's main use is to provide a clickable bookmark. Future versions may re-enable QM's offline execution mode.
"QMachine: Commodity Supercomputing in Web Browsers" has now been published online in BMC Bioinformatics. This "Highly Accessed" report explains some of the design decisions behind QM, demonstrates the use of QM in scientific workflows, and elaborates on some of the future directions. The accompanying screencasts, one of which was featured by the HPCwire and insideHPC news sites, are available on YouTube. QM has also graced the front page of Hacker News.

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
