    I love Awesome Screenshot! My other two favorite Google Chrome browser extensions are diigo and Zoom. diigo is more like an entire social network, but it does Chrome screen shots too.
    Yet I think you’re correct about Awesome Screenshot Addon being the best. I don’t know of any other free web application that offers the blur feature, only Awesome Screenshot.
