myPhoneDesktop Extension Puts The iPhone in Chrome
I talked about myPhoneDesktop 1.5 for iPhone and iPad a few hours ago, and here comes a dedicated Chrome extension to force me to cover the app once again. This extension is simple and powerful: all you have to do is sign in through the web interface and start sending links, pictures or text to your device.
The extension supports multiple copied items at once: if you try to send a link, text and image at the same time you’ll be asked if you want to keep the extension window active to select the items you want to forward to the iPhone. It’s really great, and it lets you speed up your workflow by not needing to use a standalone desktop application.
It’s the perfect companion to myPhoneDesktop for iPhone and iPad. Go download it here. Read more

You hit a button (of course, you have to create a mPD account first), and boom - you get a notification on the phone. Read more
