Description from store
You will be told a story gradually as you browse the web and encounter and interact with different characters through an augmented layer on top of the pages you normally visit.
Ways in which websites will be altered include overlays on top of the page, additional content added to certain pages, and replacing the content of banner ads with material from the story.
This extension will occasionally surprise you, and occasionally do things you haven't seen it do before. If such surprises would be unwelcome, the extension can easily be turned off and on by pressing on its icon on the upper left corner of your chrome window.
None of your data or records of any of your actions within the game will ever be sent off of your computer.

An Experience is made and maintained by Todd Anderson for his MFA Thesis in Digital Language Arts at Brown University.
This extension aims to explore chrome extensions as a creative form, and to test their capacity for gameplay and narrative. It is not, like many other chrome extensions, a simple tool to accomplish a simple task, but it is designed to build a single coherent world and to tell a story within that world. I hope you enjoy it.

- (2022-05-22) Underlying Tone: Definetly very late but I recently just found this, and im enjoying it so far:) but it says "You know...I've read a lot of stuff but I have a hard time telling what's good and what's not. Maybe you could teach me? I've modified your browser so that whenever you select some text, you can right-click to teach it to me. Can I show you?" and i agreed, then it brings me to a site that says "Sorry, that poem or audio file is currently unavailable." it was archived so i was able to read the poem but it keeps saying that over and over again.
- (2017-07-11) Miranda Rife: I really love the extension and am having tons of fun but I think I'm experience a glitch. The kite keepings telling me that it's modified my browser so that I can teach it text, but when I follow it to the kite poem and right click, I don't see the option to teach it the text. Am I missing something?

- (2023-05-05, v:0.0.91) Jules Griswold: Bug with poem
Dear Mr. Anderson, I am part of a project at Brown University digitizing and archiving online poetry. Your browser extension, "An Experience," is part of this project. In a response to a review about a bug with the Kite-reading-text, you mentioned that you solved the issue in a new version of the extension. While using the extension, I encountered the same issue. How did you solve this bug? Is there a way to access it? Thank you very much. Best wishes, Jules Griswold If you would like to contact me about the project, my university email is [email protected]
