What is it

Two extensions for small gaps the browser leaves open. One is for fun, one is for research.

Confetti Click

What is it
Confetti rains down when you click a button, submit a form, or land on Google. Themes and trigger rules are all customizable.
Why I built it
Canvas throws confetti when you turn in an assignment and it's genuinely the best part of the day. I wanted that everywhere, not just in one app.
What makes it interesting
Ten built-in themes, and you can upload your own images as confetti pieces. There's a small rules engine too, so a specific button or site can fire a specific theme, with more specific rules winning over general ones. Out of the box it just works: confetti on Google, confetti on any click.
Confetti firing across a real page.

Opportunity Miner

What is it
Reads the reviews, forum threads, and listings on whatever page you're on and pulls out the recurring complaints, workarounds, and unmet needs as a short list.
Why I built it
Discovery evidence is sitting in public all day. I wanted to collect it while I was already reading, not schedule a separate research block for it.
What makes it interesting
Complaints are cheap. Workarounds are the good stuff. Weighting extraction toward "here's what I do instead" surfaces much better opportunities than sentiment analysis ever did.
Mining a real page for complaints and workarounds.
