About
HackerNew improves a common use case for HackerNews readers. If, like me, you visit new.ycombinator.com regularly looking for interesting new stores to read then this extension is for you. Stories you want to read are opened in a new tab, contained in the HackerNew tab group. When you've pulled out all the stories of interest hit the hideAll button in the toolbar so that you get a fresh batch of stories the next time you visit. Works great with the BrainTool bookmark organizer extension.
