Cortex offers a simple and fast solution to sharing content online




Cortex, a Google Chrome extension offers a simple and fast solution to sharing content online. Once installed, it can be configured to share to several popular online services with a simple click of the mouse. 

Unlike other extensions, Cortex has the ability to share to multiple networks and isn't invasive of your online browsing experience, however is ready to use if you need it. 

To activate Cortex, simply click and hold left button of the mouse to see a pie of the services you can share to. Slide to one of them and simply let go to share your current page to that website. If you'd like to add text to go with the current page that you're on simply keep holding the left button of the mouse on one of the pie icons and then type in your text. A demonstration of the extension is displayed below:

While the services that can be configured with Cortex is limited, this extension definitely shows a lot of promise. Instead of copying and pasting links or navigating through endless menus of other extensions in order to share content, Cortex makes sharing easy. Overtime the extension can only get better, so it is definitely something worth checking out.
