EXIF Viewer for Chrome

Post by RonH »

Any recommendations please for an EXIF VIewer to use with Chrome operating on Windows 7.
There seem to be a lot listed.

Rather than looking for a browser plugin why just use a stand alone program? I've got ExifTool Gui on my XP machine, get it here;

Hei Ken ... does this one work with Chrome ... many don't.
I previously used Kuso with IE and this was a very simple rt click operation but it does not seem to function with Chrome
Thanks Ron

:scratch: I don't follow you. As I said in my post, it doesn't require a browser at all, it is a stand alone application. Once installed it's just an icon on your desktop / start menu.

Or do you mean if you are viewing an image say on Flikr, you want to get at the EXIF data without having to download the image to your PC first? In which case, no this app won't do that.

Yep, that's what I like to do. Didn't explain myself too well, sorry.

Have you asked over at CiC? Someone there might be a Chrome user.

Meanwhile my Googling only finds people asking your question and/or grumbling about the uselessness of the extensions that are available. Most seem to end up switching to Firefox and using the FXIF add-on.

That was going to be my next move Ken. Like you, all I found was 'grumbles' in my searches.
I'll drop CiC a line.
Thanks

Ken,
Gonna give:
http://regex.info/blog/other-writings/o ... ata-viewer" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; a go. Not as simple as Kuso but probably much like the one you suggested.
CiC named a couple for me. Which name are you under in CiC ... Stuck I am guessing since its listed.

You guess correctly.
