Glad this still works on all domains! But it isn't renaming "x" to "twitter" anymore. Edit: This seems to have been fixed! Changing my rating to 5 stars!

Love this extension, The only quibble I have with it is it doesn't follow the display color selection (If you select the Yellow, Pink, Purple, Orange, or Green option it always shows up as Blue)
