Zen-tab BETA.
A “new tab” extension to change the default one with simple widgets and landscapes based on your local weather. Simple, beautiful, useful.
Features:
– Rotating landscapes based on your local weather
– Date and time
– Weather and forecast
– Most visited websites
– Quick access to bookmarks
– Optional rain effect
– Quick notepad
– Save and recover your favorites landscapes
This extension is still in Beta phase, apparently, and it was back in June when this was last updated, so all I will leave are helpful hints as to changes the creators might make.
One, I suggest you create a more obvious way of changing the settings, even if it’s just a “gear” icon in the lower corner. Yes, the sliding panel looks cool, but some of us need something more obvious when starting with something they’ve never worked with before–especially at 7 AM when we haven’t had coffee yet. LOL! ;-P
Secondly, I’d love to see a way of expanding the side panel, or changing that side panel’s orientation at the very least. Some people like having panels like that on the left side. I’m one of ’em. 😉
Thirdly, instead of changing the overall size of the side panel in order to change the size of the font as a whole, you might try allowing for users to change just the font size in the note-taking widget. The font size of the weather info is plenty big enough. It’s the size in the note-taking widget that’s an issue.
Fourthly, if there was a section in the “settings slide-out panel” for adjusting/adding “most visited” sites, or a widget for that purpose, I didn’t see it. So you might want to make that more obvious as well. Visual icons are fine, but many of us are verbally oriented, so we kinda wanna have written descriptions of which thing does what, even if it’s just alt-text bars.
All this said…I do love the animated raindrop effect, as well as the ability to “favorite” certain photos. I’d love to know how to submit my own, as I love taking nature photos. So having that kind of option as a link to a submission page would be great!
Make the above changes and I’ll definitely come back around. Until then, I’m gonna have to switch to another NewTab extension. I look forward to whatever else you guys have in mind.
I just want the weather conditions, not a bunch of stupid widgets. No customizability. Lame. On to something else.
Не работает
Me encanta, facil de ver la hora el tiempo y encima me relaja. Mis 5 por tan buena extension.
güzellllllllllllll
Can’t change anything: location worked just once, now widgets don’t load, and when they did I couldn’t change anything, buttons didn’t work and overall it’s very confusing which is a shame since it looks good.
Perfeito!
extension has crashed
havent even seen the actual thing, all it does is show the loading bar :///////////
Se queda cargando y no pasa nada.
(it keeps loading, nothing happens)
It’s really nice, but takes too long to startup
sirve para Vivaldi?
Photos are awesome. However I can’t change location, widgets get duplicated, I can’t set which widgets I want (the buttons on the float-out settings page are maddeningly unresponsive most of the time, only activating to do a thing I don’t want.) I am using a macbook pro. Could that be the problem?

Good looking but not user friendly.
Parfait et esthétique .
może spowolnić trochę chroma ale bardzo ładnie się prezentuje
PERFECT!
I cant change the location, and I dont know how to adjust it to have the information I would like. The edits tab works sometimes, and then stops responding.
когда создаю новое окно,просто показывает загрузку,но один раз показало как на скринах
jak włączam kartę to strasznie wolno się ładuje obraz…
mejor que la original! y las imágenes se adaptan en función del horario!!!!
