Techmeme Less is a free Chrome add-on developed by Martyn Davis. It falls under the category of Browsers and specifically the subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This add-on allows users to hide and optionally view 'More' and 'Tweets' information within Techmeme pages.

By default, the 'More' and 'Tweets' information is hidden, and instead, it is replaced by 'More: X Tweets: Y' at the end of the item's description. With Techmeme Less, users can click on 'More: X Tweets: Y' to cycle through different options. The first option is to show the 'More' and 'Tweets' information in its summary form. The second option is to show the information in its verbose form. And the third option is to hide the 'More' and 'Tweets' information again.

Additionally, when the 'More' and 'Tweets' information is hidden, Techmeme Less also exposes the 'See also Mediagazer' links. This add-on also updates the top and bottom menus to allow users to show or hide all 'More' and 'Tweets' information for all items.

Techmeme Less is a useful tool for users who want to have more control over the information displayed on Techmeme pages. With its simple and intuitive interface, users can easily toggle between hiding and viewing the 'More' and 'Tweets' information.
