Fauxbar 1.8.1 CRX for Chrome

Fauxbar makes Chrome's New Tab page act like classic Firefox's Awesome Bar:
• Quickly find the history page, tab or bookmark you're after
• Results are ranked using Mozilla's frecency algorithm, just like Firefox
• Add and use your favorite websites' search engines with ease
• Show tiled thumbnails for your top websites and installed Chrome apps

To use Fauxbar, simply open a new tab, or click the orange Fauxbar icon beside Chrome's Omnibox, or focus the Omnibox and press F+Spacebar.

What's the difference between Fauxbar and Fauxbar Lite? -- Fauxbar replaces Chrome's New Tab page; Fauxbar Lite does not.

If you'd rather keep Chrome's New Tab page as is, please install Fauxbar Lite instead: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bfimmnpbjccjihohjkimphfmmebffbmk
