This extension adds buttons to crossword puzzle websites.

The buttons link to blogs/discussions/answers for the puzzle.

This extension is especially useful for users doing puzzles from the NY Times archive.

For example, upon completing the NY Times puzzle for March 14, 2015, the user doesn't have to google "Rex Parker March 14, 2015."

Instead, the user can just click the "Rex Parker" button which links directly to the Rex Parker blog post for March 14, 2015.

This extension currently supports the following crosswords:
