WHAT IS BLIPHOME

Bliphome is a minimalist new tab page with quick dial functionality for Chrome.

This extension should work on Windows, Mac and Linux. (untested)

USAGE

This extensions leverages your bookmarks to create a minimalist new tab. When first launched it will check and if necessary create a bookmark folder called "New tab". It then will show all the bookmarks inside that folder.

As bookmarks are automatically saved by Google Chrome Sync, this extension automatically syncs and doesn't lock you in.

TODO

• Add a way to manually add bookmarks
• Goo: should support multiple "roots"

• 1.0.0 (4 Jan 2019)

  • First public release.

• 0.1.0 (1 Nov 2018)

  • First private release.
