New Tab Draft - Transform Your Chrome Tab into a Notepad & Calculator

It features direct calculation, font and background customization, auto-local backup, and privacy protection with all data saved in the local storage of your browser, not on the cloud. Extra features include quick post to Twitter, email sending, emoji options, daily inspiration, and spell check. New Tab Draft is the perfect tool for jotting down thoughts, to-do lists, or inspirations, anytime and anywhere.

User reviews

Clean, simple and does what it promises, while also including neat extra features like a custom emoji bank you save at the top of each document and simply click to utilize, which I've used to categorize "to do" items in separate categories. Excellent extension!

Now that I know this extension is counting my characters, what else is it watching me do? I'll be removing it asap.

Sidebar can overlap with text in split-screen tiling integration + best extension ever.
