I use this extension for many years and this page was temporary disabled by Google for few months. The extension has been no longer updated for years and I create an alternative with the Tabliss extension in case of this extension doesn't work in a future Chrome version. You can find it on GitHub: https://gist.github.com/niquenen/29824086a63fa81582f4cb84b93adbfc
