Love this extension, but I would like the tab name "New tab" instead of "Surge"

Good configuration options but I would however like a method to change the new tab name from "Surge"

1/18 I'm having so much problems with this and just a couple tweaks would make it better! first of all the reddit option for pictues is horrible 1) it won't rotate.. it's been stuck on one pic for 2 days now 2) when it was working and rotating, the pics on that site are utter crap.. and i've done an extensive search for reddit wallpaper.. they are pretty bad - Our other option is to use a pic url - but ppl don't want us drawing traffic to their site just so we can use their url to show a pic on surge.. please give us an option to simply upload a pic from our files -
if i'm going to be stuck with just one pic i'd like it to be one of my choosing

Old review: Doesn't work well. No rotating pics, u have to pick one and stay with it. It will NOT accurately show my weather no matter how many times i try and reset it - it's 26 degrees off! Also not easy to setup- i had to dump it and re instal to try and get new settings I wanted.. not a good product at all - geeshe

fix the weather, allow us to enter our zip code, make the edit page easier,, and if you could make it rotate pics it would be a much better app. i was using skyinc and loved it but their site suddenly went down today so i was trying something new.. i wouldn't even mind a small (small!) ad in the corner so the creator can profit off its downloads.. but overall this is not working..

Possibly the best of the new tab extensions. It could be improved some, however:

- The title of the new tab should be "New Tab" instead of "Surge."
- Ability to set a background color instead of an image. For now, I just use a data URI of a pixel.
- Show the weather forecast as is available through the OpenWeatherMap API.
- Ability to lock the position of the clock.

Very nice extension. Thanks, guy.

Just a quick question (if you read this:) : is there any chance to make it a default for the incognito mode? Checking the button on the setting on the Chrome extension page does't help ...

Perfect, this is what I was looking for. Simple, elegant, customisable and without useless clutter floating around the page.

One of the most elegant new tab extensions around. Love the minimalistic design. 'Apps' tab doesn't work on Chromebooks though. Would be perfect if you fix it :)

Does exactly what it says, looks great, and doesn't need a thousand permissions! Surprisingly good, and blows away the competition.
