Extension summary

Updates Version 0.3.1 - Remove unwanted tabs permission. Now I don't need the permission to read and change all the data of the websites you visit - Use the Favicons provided by chrome instead of a jugaad done. This improves the page load time by about half a second. - Deprecating Tiles Tiles are nothing but a glorified bookmark and are also painful to configure and use. If you are using tiles extensively, please move them to your bookmarks.

Version 0.3.0

View your bookmarks in the new tab page Bookmarks are the most important stuff we have in our browser apart from passwords. Instead of searching for it in the super small bookmark bar, view them on your new tab page. Note: Only the bookmarks in your bookmarks bar are shown. Bookmarks within other folders are ignored.

User reviews

Doesn't seem very mature. Some of the icons do not work. Customization of shown bookmarks doesn't have a good usability. But I like the top and bottom icon bars.
