I really believe this is an essential tool for any researcher. It simplifies so much the whole process of identifying, ranking and selecting papers/journals... I think the extension works great and it offers the needed results immediately without even asking for it. Totally recommend it. An absolutely essential for research.

I like it. It is visually interesting and easy to navigate. The ability to see the abstract is outstanding. It will be even better when developers add other indicators.
