TabRocket New Tab Page Extension

NOTE: It is recommended that you use my other extension, DashTab, instead of TabRocket: https://goo.gl/QTklJZ

TabRocket is your simple alternative to Google's new tab page. The design has been stripped down to the bare essentials. Time, date, apps, and favorite websites. Access your favorite website with the Quick Links, and custom designed banners to complete the look.

Features:
- Simple, alluring new tab page
- Time and date in center
- Change the background, or use the default
- Chrome Apps shortcut
- Customizable Quick Links for your favorite websites*

Please give us a good review if you like TabRocket. We will continue to remain ad-free, but please share to show your support!
