Reader For Chrome Mac
In October of last year I wrote about a way to view Web pages in Chrome for Android without any of the distracting ads or other page elements. This feature, called Reader Mode, presents only the elements within the body of the story, so you can stay focused on the text and pertinent images.
Now this feature can now be enabled on the desktop version of Chrome for Windows, according to SlashGear, but it carries a new name: Distill mode. Here's how to use it on your desktop:
ChromeVox is an extension for Chrome on Windows and Mac OS X which operates as an alternative screen reader for Web content. ChromeVox speaks the content of the page, plays audio indicators for page load progress and objects on the page, and provides a way to navigate all web content from the keyboard.

How to Use Chrome’s RSS Reader Extension While Chrome doesn’t have the same built-in functionality as Safari, it does have a rich library of extensions that can do almost anything you need. RSS Feed Reader is an awesome extension I would highly recommend for Chrome users.
Step 1: Locate your shortcut for opening Chrome, whether it's on your taskbar, desktop or within the Start menu. Right-click it and open the Properties settings.
Step 2: Next to 'Target' you will see the file path for the Chrome application. Add a space and then the following words to the end of the text:
I've found lots of comments on problems with Adobe's Reader in various browsers in Windows. However, I am thinking of transitioning to Chrome on my Mac, but I can't get Chrome to display PDFs in the browser using Adobe's plugin. Click the default PDF reader. For example, if it’s currently set to Google Chrome, click Google Chrome. A list of apps that can read PDFs will appear.

Step 3: Click Apply and then close down all instances of Chrome. If you are using Hangouts or Google Now for your desktop, you will need to close the icon in your system tray, too.
When you want to test out the Distill mode: Open Chrome from the shortcut you edited, then click the hamburger (three lines) icon in the top right-hand corner and choose Distill page.
The Distill feature is a little wonky in terms of how well it will reformat the page, but is a great option on sites that use flashing or video advertisements. What do you think?
