If you run a WordPress blog (or more than one!) and use Google Chrome, you might be interested in a handy new extension called WordPress Checker. It keeps track of unmoderated and spam comments, so you can approve or delete them. It puts a little WordPress icon next to your search bar, with a badge for the number of comments you currently have to deal with.

There's another, slightly more popular extension that you might also want to keep an eye on: HelloLogic's WordPress Comments Notifier. It doesn't support multiple accounts, the way WordPress Checker does, but the developers promise that future versions will do so.
