Once you have setup your account, you will be taken to the Dashboard, which looks like this:

Even though there is a lot to explore on the dashboard, for now let's focus on the most interesting aspect of Buffer - its extension for Chrome.

I personally think it is a great browser anyway, so it shouldn't be such a hassle.

Click on "Install the Extension" to proceed.

Don't be afraid - it's safe to "Add extension". You will begin to download a file. Once it's finished, run the applet and it will install the extension.

If it works out OK, you will see it as a clickable button within your extensions (to the right of the internet address bar). Just like this:

Everybody, who is using social media to share content will benefit from it. It makes it so easy to get your content out. Ever since I read your blog post about it I got more into Buffer and how it works.

Not going to get back to manually sharing it any time soon. :)

Once again, thank you!
