Summary

Basically, what it does is it aggregates questions from StackExchange sites, and shows them on your New Tab window. You can select what sites you want to display, filter questions by tags, change themes and much more.

Now, when you open new tab, you always see most relevant questions for you.

I warn you, this extension is a real timekiller. So, if you appreciate your time, don't install it. Or if you're like me, and you just love StackExchange sites, then try it out! Who needs time, anyway :)
