Pandora Popup Controls

Download extension

An extension to control Pandora from an easy-access popupInstead of going through a dozen tabs to find the Pandora tab to skip this annoying song, this extension will let you skip, thumb-down, thumb-up, pause, and play your Pandora from a little easy-access popup, along with other extra features.

How it works: The extension detects the tab that has Pandora in it and sends the control commands to it, without having to have the Pandora tab active.

Extra features:
- button to switch to Pandora tab
- display song info: name, artist, album, album art
- display song play info: time remaining and elapsed, time progress
- detect indicators for play, pause, thumb-up, and thumb-down buttons
- provide links to YouTube and Google, searching by song name and artist, and lyrics

Note: This extension is not affiliated with Pandora itself in any way -- I just like Pandora so much and I have a billion tabs open and just want to skip this annoying song without having to fiddle through my tabs.

Enjoy!
