        "version": "1.0",
        "description": "This is a sample Google Chrome extension.",
        "permissions": [ "http://www.ralin.net/" ]
    }

Load the extension

1. Open the extensions management page by choosing Tools > Extensions menu.
2. Hit the Load unpacked extension button and a file dialog will appear.
3. Go to your extension folder and select it.
