Log and registered tabs are empty. Nothing is being displayed. Probably extension in incompatible with latest Chrome versions

useless

Hard to find out where it is after loading. Looks like it might be useful but couldn't get it to work at all on Macbook Pro Mavericks.

Worked until upgrade to Version 28.0.1500.52 :-( There's an "Event spy" tab as before, but it doesn't log anything, nor it shows registered events.

Is causing my browser to hang. Using lots of memory in apps with lots of bound events.
Jason Butz
Cool and useful tool, but it uses a lot of memory relative to other extensions, so watch out.
