Chrome for a Cause is a Google Chrome extension that counts the number of tabs you open in one session and translates it into charity donations. It’s running from 15-19 December. You can choose one of five charities you want to donate to, and you get a reading of what your tabs have been converted into. It’s not a trick to invade your privacy either. Google says: “Chrome for a Cause tracks your tab count, but doesn’t store any of your browsing history.”

To give you an idea of how many tabs rack up a decent donation: it takes 10 tabs to rack up enough browsing to plant a tree or donate a book. The five charities are Doctors Without Borders, The Nature Conservancy, Room to Read, Charity:Water and Un Techo para mi País. For more info about Chrome for a Cause, head here.
