    Browse the internet without getting ADD

    Some websites have an overwhelming number of images and headlines and ads
    all screaming for your attention simultaneously. Our poor brains spin into
    overdrive just to interpret all these distractions.

    GlobalMobile aims to restore your sanity by reducing and simplifying the
    content on these websites. It does this with a simple hack: Many of the
    worst offending websites actually have nice mobile versions, with just a
    single column of content to scroll through. Global Mobile displays this
    mobile version of a site in your browser (It doesn't change the size of
    your browser window, just the content).

    How it works: By default Global Mobile will not change anything- As you
    encounter overly complicated pages, click 'Add To Whitelist' in the
    GlobalMobile menu. From then on, GlobalMobile will display the mobile
    version for all pages on the site. To undo this change, select 'Remove From
    Whitelist' in the GlobalMobile menu.
