Added a new feature called "tiles" to my extension "Silver". Tiles allow you to add snippets from websites to a sidebar appearing in the right of the screen using a url and a CSS selector. To open the tiles sidebar "metakey"-click the "Tab organizer" button, (you must have the tab organizer button added to your toolbar for this to work). There you can add a tile/snippet from a website, by adding the url and the css selector to grab the snippet. Please comment if you have any thoughts or ideas. One point for improvement is adding a way to get a unique css selector from clicking an element on the webpage to avoid having to figure out a css selector for every snippet you want, this may take some work to get working properly.
Tiles is added to the silver extension so tiles can be displayed in the search results (quick results are displayed by prefixing a search result with a colon sign ':' in your search bar).
I'm starting work on a new extension for displaying extracted information from wikipedia or wiktionary in an overlay as a definition, i did not see any extension for this that already exists.
