New Tab King is a Firefox add-on (Windows only) that's available for you when launching a new browser tab. Instead of getting a blank page (or the Homepage in some cases), New Tab King provides you with your most visited sites as well as the sites you bookmarked on your own. Both these lists are ordered from most to least vested in the past 30 days. Each site is displayed with its description text and the website's icon.
Another feature is a Google search box, right at your finger tips and in focus - for you to type in your search in Google search service.
There is also the possibility to delete a site from your list, by clicking the 'x' button - right of the site name.
With these simple additions to a new tab opening, New Tab King enables you to access the sites you're most likely to look for within your browser and save you the search in your browser history or cache.
Using the extension is simple enough—just use the Ctrl+T shortcut key, and the new tab page will show up with shortcuts to launch applications, the most used web sites and recently closed tabs—very similar to Google Chrome's new tab page, but in a list instead of a grid. Although you can customize the background image, there aren't a lot of other options to choose from—but it's an interesting extension that will hopefully get better over time.
If you'd rather have the Google Chrome new tab page in Firefox, you can do so by grabbing the latest version of the Google Toolbar for Firefox.
