Customize Chrome shortcuts

We’ve been talking about Chrome’s new look this week. One nice new feature is the ability to customize the shortcuts pictured on the New tab page.

When you open a new tab in Chrome, the shortcuts below the search box show your most frequently visited pages. Now, you’ll be able to customize the page to show your favorite sites.
