The Chrome homepage add-on I’d used the longest was Momentum. It puts a new photo as your new tab page each day, with the time, an inspirational quote, a small to-do list, and more. Another cool option just to put a photo on your new tab page is Unsplash Instant which shows a new photo from Unsplash with each new tab.

about:blank
as the new tab page.Then, a bit back in a discussion about the best bookmarking tools, several people had mentioned Chrome New Tab tools that are designed for bookmarks too:

Markdown is the most popular way to format plain text. Add common characters like asterisks and dashes to text, much like how you might format a quick store list in your notes app or add emphasis ...
Or do you use the Linux subsytem in Windows, emulation tools like DosBOX and WINE, or mobile device emulator/simulators? What's your favorite ways you've used virtual machines and emulation?
Great point on not hitting the new tab page much. I tend to launch sites from the address bar (typing in something in an existing tab then hitting CMD+Enter to open it in a new tab, if needed), or via Alfred.
