This addon will transform Firefox's new tab page into a notebook, links to weather and search, and a listing of top sites.
-
Top sites will be the same as those loaded in about:newtab. Pinned sites on that page will be respectively pinned on this extension's page.
-
Bookmarks will be the same as those In the bookmarks toolbar. (may use dedicated folder with the 2.0 release)
-
Weather links to DuckDuckGo's Weather Instant Answer feature, which uses Dark Sky as its source. It should show local weather based on your IP address, but location is configurable through the options page.
-
Implement themes and theme chooser (light, dark, greyscale, colorful)
-
Option to choose image to be used as background
-
Choose which links to display in top bar
Credit for the initial work on the "notebook", and the initial base for this project, goes to wildskyf's "tab-notes".
