    Default New NewTabPage

    In the latest Dev release Chromium is using by default their new version of the NTP. I personally hate it, or lets say dislike it. Anyway, if you want to see the old NTP instead add --old-new-tab-page to the shortcut.

    Nice trick! We'll see if it's worth doing it once the version is out on Chrome Dev...

    In the latest dev version of Chrome you can add "-new-new-tab-page" (only 1 - )

    Finally it's posible to move the thumbnails!

    Yes, and I liked it.

    In my case, that pinned thing and the ability to move the order is just perfect. Saves lots of time, providing quick access.

    Also, dunno if all people here noticed but if you accidently close chrome, when u re-open it it's possible to restore all previous tabs, with that tab page. I didn't notice it before)

    @Mija24

    You don't need the new new tab command line it's the default .. ;-)

    If you want the old New Tab page add --old-new-tab-page to the command line ... ;-)

    @Firehalk

    Always been there ;-)

    Yep, that's what the pin does.

    I don't really know how to restore deleted icons though..
