Summary

This Chrome extension opens new windows directly to the right of the current window (instead of Chrome's default cascading behavior).

Why does this matter?

Like many people, my Chrome window is always set to take the maximum vertical space on my monitor (but not the maximum horizontal space).

That's extremely annoying!

There are 3 major features that make up the functionality of this extension:
