Google has been trying out a redesign of Chrome’s famous New Tab page. The new interface is more organized than the previous one as it cleverly categorizes apps and bookmarks into separate screens. The user can slide between the screens by simply grabbing and pushing the mouse in the required direction. Here’s how to enable it on your browser.
1. In the address bar type in the command about:flags
2. Look for the option which says “Experimental new tab page”
3. Enable the option and restart the browser

The redesigned interface is incomplete but doesn’t have any conspicuous bugs or issues. The sliding is smooth, almost like using a touch screen interface. We don’t know whether this is actually a move by Google to support touch screens, but nevertheless, it’s a great improvement to have.
N.B: The interface is still in Beta, so you might encounter some bugs. Also, the page works in Chrome as well as Chromium, but do make sure you have the latest versions.
