So the backstory is that Google replaced the New Tab page this week with a new one that many users don't like: https://twitter.com/search?q=chrome%20new%20tab https://twitter.com/search?q=chrome%20new%20tab
Our extension is much like the old new tab page, but with various improvements:
- you can add any app, not just those in Chrome Web Store, including custom ones
- the launcher is automatically populated for you
- you can share the launcher with your colleagues
- the launcher config is synced to our server and we have a standalone service available as well as tab replacement addons for most other browsers
- we have deep links available, giving you shortcuts inside the web apps
- you can have multiple screens
We also have something really neat just around the corner, which you can see in this quick demo video: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/zy8xo0p086ydql8/starthq.webm?token_hash=AAH1d1YM2_i1K7DTyXv7k5K8dDtC74AuXXi7O9I4YnMj6g&dl=1 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/zy8xo0p086ydql8/starthq....
Finally, you can try it out without installing the extension here: https://starthq.com https://starthq.com - we don't require you to verify your email to try it out.
Would really appreciate your feedback, thanks!
- welder 13y agoDoes this provide the frequently visited websites view?
- olegp 13y agoNot as such, but you can put that on our roadmap: http://starthq.uservoice.com http://starthq.uservoice.com The launcher being populated automatically effectively does that though, it just doesn't keep it up to date yet.
