is quite fun.
Try it if you're running Froyo.

Love it! especially for installing apks on the phone, just right click the link in Firefox and use Send link to Android!!!

I have a lot of hopes for the whole cloud thing (push notifications?!) but this chrome thing can be done without Froyo or a cloud etc. I have oneliner scripts on my phone and computer to send clipboard contents back and forth between the two via ssh. Copy any text on the PC and click an icon and, bang, it's in my phone's clipboard. Copy some text on the phone and tap a gscript shortcut and, bang, it's in my computer's clipboard.

Not completely true. When you send a link to your phone with the extension, if you have text highlighted, it does copy it to your Android clipboard and like you said that's possible without the push server. However remember that the page/maps open automatically. It's not just sending a text link, it's sending an Android Intent. That is a very powerful tool that opens a lot of new possibilities for developers. Sending links back and forth is quite useful but it's really just a proof of concept.
Did you ever know that you can access your phone's data like photos, listen to music, watch movies and files on your PC via a Wi-Fi connection? If you didn't, then today I'm going to tell you how you can enjoy your phone from your PC. Check it out-
1. First of all, download Browsix Lite from Android Market. It's a free android app that allows you to access your mobile phone fully with just Wi-Fi signal.
2. Once you've installed Browsix Lite, you need to name your device and then you need to tap on “Start Browsix”.
Now the work on your phone is almost finished. Now you need to visit your browsix.com or the website URL mentioned there to start using your Android phone on your PC.
3. I opened Browsix.com and Home of it displays the devices named 'Yo.' (As I gave the name 'Yo' to my device). Remember it'll only show the devices using Browsix app and more importantly, the same Wi-Fi network. Click on the device to see the files and folders inside it.
4. Now you can download any file from your phone to your PC wirelessly. Even you can read SMS, reply to an SMS and directly access your Phone Book Contacts on your PC. It's just amazing. Browse through different tabs given on there, and Enjoy

ANDROID PC SUITE TO BACKUP, RESTORE DATA, TAKE SCREENSHOT, ETC.
MoboPlay is a free Android PC suite to backup & restore Android data , transfer media files, take screenshot of Android from PC , view device in fullscreen, manage files, install apps, manage contacts & messages, etc. It exhibits all the features of other popular PC suites like MoboGenie, vShare and MoboRobo, but the features which make MoboPlay unique are space (junk) cleaner, the screenshot function, and the fullscreen view. It also shows some software and hardware details of the connected Android device along with storage usage.
You can easily backup and restore your phone’s data like contacts, messages, call logs, images, apps, and music. The fullscreen view of the device can help you take better screenshots using the built-in screenshot feature. It also helps you transfer media files like photos and music from your phone to PC and vice versa. You can explore and install tons of apps and games directly to your Android device. If you wish to clear up your storage, then use the “Space Cleaner” to remove all the junk files and free up storage.
Let me explain all the important features of MoboPlay and how you can use them for your Android device.
How to Backup and Restore Data of Your Android Phone:
Step 1: After opening this PC suite, click the “ToolBox” tab to browse various options including backup and restore.
Step 2: Click the “Backup” option in the toolbox to select items or data of your Android phone which you want to backup. It allows you to backup contacts, messages, call logs, images, apps, and music. You can also set the destination folder where you want the backup to be stored.
Step 3: Once you’re done selecting items and assigning the destination folder, simply click the “Quick Backup” button to start the backup. It will automatically create a backup file with all the items you’ve selected in the destination folder.
Step 4: To restore your data from any backup file, select the “Restore” option in the toolbox. A popup will appear with all the backup files and item types. You can check and uncheck any of the item types from the list. When you’re done with selecting a backup file and associated items, hit the “Restore” button, that’s all.
How to Take Screenshots of Android Phone from PC:
Step 1: MoboPlay makes taking screenshots of your Android phone from PC much easier. You can either select the “Device” tab to take screenshots or you can use the fullscreen feature to take better screenshots.
Step 2: Click the “Device” tab and you will see a “Screenshot” option at the bottom of the device image. The screen which you’re using currently on your phone gets auto-refreshed in Moboplay. Simply click the “Screenshot” option and you will be able to capture and save a screenshot of the device screen.
Step 3: If you want to take better screenshots, then I suggest you use the fullscreen feature. Go to the “ToolBox” tab and select “Fullscreen” option. A fullscreen window will appear along with the “Screenshot” button at the bottom. Click the button to take screenshots of your Android phone as shown below.
How to Transfer Media from Android to PC and PC to Android:
Step 1: Moboplay also allows you to transfer media like photos, music, and videos from Android to PC and PC to Android. Go to the “Device” tab and you will see a “Media” section on the left with folders like Camera Images, Albums, Wallpapers, Music, and Videos.
Step 2: Browse any of the folders to transfer media from your Android phone to PC. When you select a media file, you will see an “Export” button at the top. Click the button to select the destination folder and transfer file.
Step 3: If you want to transfer files from PC to any of the folders in the “Media” section, then click the “Upload” button adjacent to the “Export” button. After that, you can simply browse your PC and select the files which you want to transfer to your Android phone.
How to Manage Contacts and Messages of Android from PC:
Step 1: Click the “Device” tab and you will be able to see two folders named Contacts and Messages below the “Media” section.
Step 2: Click the “Contacts” folder to manage all your Android contacts. You can add new contacts, import and export contacts as VCF files, delete contacts, edit contact information, and send SMS directly from your PC to any of the contacts.
Step 3: If you want to manage all your Android messages, then select the “Messages” folder. All your messages will be visible on the screen, where you can delete and view messages. You can also start a conversation with any of the message senders right on your PC.
How to Clean Junk Files on Android:
Step 1: The last useful and important feature of MoboPlay is the “Space Cleaner”. Go to the “ToolBox” tab and select the option “Space Cleaner”. As soon as you do that, a popup window will appear with two tabs named APK Files Cleanup and Large Files Cleanup.
Step 2: It automatically scans through all the APK files to find and clear junk files. But if you want to free up more space, then try the large files cleanup.
Step 3: Simply click the “Large Files Cleanup” tab and hit the “Scan” button. It will scan your entire phone for large videos, images, unnecessary documents, etc. You can click the “Clean” button associated with each junk or large file to remove it instantly.
The Final Verdict:
MoboPlay is a very useful Android PC suite that allows you to backup & restore Android data, clean junk files to free up space, take screenshots of Android on PC, transfer media files from Android to PC and PC to Android, manage contacts & messages, and much more. You can also discover and install thousands of apps and games directly on your Android device.

Sadface, well I'm not sure if it's possible at all, I was just wondering
Looks like a great piece of software tho ^^
Actually, I am using a phone manager that it online-based. The tool is called AirMore. It is a free web-based app that is used to manage phone files on the computer. You can import/export files on or from your computer to your cellphone. I love it because it is wireless. I just connect via WiFi and start managing my files.
