I like this as an alternative new tab page to other options I have used. Home-rolled solutions being the best in terms of content on screen but sometimes (often) painful to deal with as another site I have to update and tinker with and browser defaults being generally horrid in all ways (despite it being a pile of garbage, I use Firefox because I believe in browser engine diversity and Chrome is not any less garbage, plus theming with Chrome...like wow what trash). This gives me the dev news I want, in a form that isn't too offensive to my design sensibilities and not intrusive or broken. Plus the article commenting system is a cool plus I always like contributing a wall post when I feel strongly about something, as is the gamification that is not overdone and encourages one to use the thing consistently. Wish I could theme it a bit more (the default dark background is a bit too blue for me, I generally prefer grayscale only UIs these days) but not worth taking off a star. Great add-on, professional enough to support Firefox and functional in ways even better funded projects just aren't.
