Summary

Newton is a tiny Chrome extension that shares little bits of inspiration, with a fun "Guess Who?" game!

On every new tab, Newton will show you a quote from someone famous (or infamous) and prompt you to guess its source. To know if you guessed right, hover the mouse pointer on ? to know who said it and click to see more quotes from that personality.

Newton is completely free, and will always be. This is my first 'product' and I learnt how to develop Chrome extensions just to make this, so feedback will be appreciated and enthusiastically responded to. Let me know what you think.

UPDATE: A few cosmetic changes, and a new list of quotes to inspire and entertain.

Safety
Risk impact

Newton is relatively safe to use as it requires very minimum permissions.

Risk likelihood

Newton may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
