Pretty cool. Good replacement for standard new tab page. Could do with a few improvements, but otherwise it's really great.

I installed this, and it totally failed to paint my house, my walls or my cat! IT also didn't make me dinner.

Superb, got it running with a dark wallpaper url and showing time and date. Runs on my second screen.
