Question

Is there any Chrome or Firefox extension or just a bookmarklet that retrieves comments from a hand-picked list of community websites* for a given URL?

I would like, when reading an article (or any URL, it could be the homepage or a YouTube page) to be able to quickly access the related discussions from other websites so I can get some context - other people's findings/conclusions.

Ideally listed in a sidebar, worst case just the links to the particular pages where the comments happen.

* Say, Reddit, Hacker News etc.

Explanation / Answer

Check out this add-on for Firefox or Chrome! I just did a few minutes of searching and believe it's exactly what you're looking for. After you install the add-on you (and restart your browser), you'll see a new button in your toolbar. Click it when you're on a page where your article is and it will show you similar pages. You can also click on the 'get more results' button at the bottom and it will break them down into four categories:

I really hope this helps and works well for you!
