Look at all this wasted real estate! Can I get a wider editor? Modern monitors are real big. That textbox needs to catch up. Using a new Google Chrome extension called Stylebot, end users can change and update the style elements of any website, essentially changing the way the web appears whenever they visit the site. Although users may be happy about the tool, web developers may not be so enthusiastic.
