Better New Tab is a free Chrome extension developed by sysfiendio. Categorized under Browsers and listed as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory, this simple extension aims to streamline the process of copying, opening a new tab, pasting, and hitting enter.

With Better New Tab, using this functionality is a breeze. Here's how it works:

1. Select the desired text.

2. Press Shift+T.

If the selected text starts with "http" or "https," Better New Tab will automatically open a new tab, assuming it's a URL. On the other hand, if the selected text doesn't start with a URL, the extension will search the text on Google.

Better New Tab offers a convenient solution for users who frequently need to copy and search or open URLs in new tabs. With its straightforward functionality, it saves time and effort by eliminating the need for manual copying, pasting, and searching.
