How to get Windows 8 UI Design on Chrome Browser

There are people who like and dislike Windows 8 UI design or the tiles. It is good if you have touch screen to play around with the Windows 8 UI.
What if you don’t have Windows 8 installed and still want to install and play around with the UI design or the tiles of windows 8. Irrespective of the operating system installed, you can enjoy the tiles and the UI design of Windows 8 provided you have Google Chrome browser installed in your machine.
Follow the following steps to install Windows 8 UI design on your Chrome browser.
google chrome app windows 8 UI design for chrome
This app is not just about UI, the functionalities are good enough. Some of the UI features are even better than the Windows tiles like your can search for something on Google or YouTube or Amazon from the app tile or you can search for someone from Facebook or Pinterest tile. The best thing about this app is it configurable, you can customize it the way you want. You can drag and drop apps and to configure an item all that you need to do is right click on the tile that you want to configure. When you do so, you get an option at the bottom of the browser to edit or customize the way you want. You can add your own tile, link, colour, icon, background etc. Other features include fast access bar and mouse wheel support. If you want to add a tile then you can select icon, set title and a link. All your chrome apps that you have installed will appear to the right, to view this just scroll to the right. I like this new tab page in metro style. Install this and let me know what you think by leaving a comment.
