UnFuckGoogle is an extension for Safari and Chrome that removes various annoyances from Google.
The current features are as follows:
- Search results:
- remove +1 buttons
- disable page previews
- remove the prompts to add your Twitter account to your Google profile
- remove history-breaking onmousedown handlers from result links that transform the original link into a google.com redirect
- restore Cached and Similar links to their original position
- Global:
- restore the top navigation bar to its original white background
To build the extension, you need Node.js and CoffeeScript. Run cake at the
root of the cloned repo (where Cakefile resides) for the available commands.
The build products will go in their respective locations under safari/ and
chrome/.
You will have to package the build products into distributable form by using Extension Builder (Safari) and Extension Management (Chrome). See Apple's and Google's developer documentation for details.
