Interesting - I've had the Project Naptha (http://projectnaptha.com/) Chrome extension installed without really looking under the hood. Turns out it has Ocrad.js and Tesseract as two engine options - it uses them to automaticaly convert images on the page to selectable text.

Yup! And Naptha and Ocrad.js are both authored by antimatter15.
