Extension Usage Instructions

                        UPDATE: Removed Google support as they changed their tracking to no longer use redirects - thus making this extension pointless for it.  see https://github.com/xwipeoutx/undirect/issues/13 for more info.

Have you ever tried to copy a url from Facebook search and got a massive redirect url instead?
Do you want them to know exactly what search results you're clicking?
Have you seen your browser stuck at a redirect page, instead of going straight where you want to?

Undirect can fix these things! Links on Facebook search results will no longer do any redirecting - go straight to the site you want, first time!

Supports both HTTP and HTTPS.
