New Tab Redirect!
I wanted to write an extension for Google's Chrome browser. I did some research to find out what a lot of people *wished* would exist.
A lot of people wanted the ability to control what page loads in a new tab, so I wrote an extension to do this.
Download from Google's Extension Gallery.
Download the source from google code.
Edit: 1/30/10 As of today, this extension has 197 users! Nice!
Edit: 2/06/10 Added original Google Chrome pages: Extensions, Downloads, History, and NewTab

Thanks for this extension, every couple of months I try Chrome again but have normally ended up going back to firefox because of little things that I couldn’t easily control in Chrome that I could configure in Firefox. I’m not sure if this is the time I’ll stick, but small things like this are definitely making Chrome a friendlier browser!
