Hide Google Doogle from Chrome "New Tab"? - google-chrome

this might question might not belong here, but idk where a better place would be.
Is there a way to remove the Google Doodle from the "New Tab" page in Chrome?
It's often "Corona, stay safe" lately, and I spend a lot of time on the web, and find it quite depressing to be reminded of it all the time.
I tried AdBlock, but it doesn't want to block stuff on that page for me :/.
Thanks :)

You can install the Adblock extension, and make sure to block http://www.google.com/logos/*

You can make a notification persist until dismissed with requireInteraction flag:
Indicates that the notification should remain visible on screen until the user activates or dismisses the notification. This defaults to false.

How to create hidden chrome Extension [duplicate]

This question already exists:
how to hide chrome extension apps in "chrome://extensions/"?
Closed 8 years ago.
Basically this question for chrome,
"How to create hidden Firefox Extension?".
Thanks
First off, it sounds like you're trying to build malware. If that's not the case, I'd suggest you clarify your intent.
However, it sounds like the closest thing to what you're looking for is Chrome's "Enterprise Policy" system. It's meant for use by large organizations to centrally manage hundreds of Chrome installations remotely, but it's also popular among malware developers (for the same reason). Your extension won't be "hidden," since Chrome doesn't allow for hidden extensions, but the user won't be able to uninstall it through chrome://extensions.
I've never worked with it before, so I can't give much more detail, but here's a link to a Google page that explains it a bit.
Again, you should really reconsider whatever it is that you're doing. If you need your code to be invisible to its user, you're probably doing something you shouldn't be.
Make a chrome app instead of an extension. It will appear in the apps window but not in the extensions window. I don't know of any other way. Chrome is fairly locked down.

Add-on to copy a page element with styles

I'm looking for an add-on for any browser that could copy any particular web page element with all it's styles to clipboard to be paste-in and show someone.
The aim is to have an opportunity to quickly share a small part of my big project or to assist in writing an article about this HTML and CSS tricks or to inspect a part of someone's else work.
Any ideas? If no such plugin exist, I'll try to write is by myself.
This is probably too late. But if anyone out there looking for the same thing, use SnappySnippet. It was built by Konrad Dzwinel
Firefox Add-on
Chrome extension
More details
It's a great extension.
Haven't seen anyone mention such an extension and a quick search doesn't yield one. You'll probably have to build one yourself.
The excellent Firebug add-on already collects this information, it may be easier to make a Firebug plugin to add the push-button convenience.
Note that this question is tagged as Greasemonkey, but Greasemonkey is not the best tool for this job.
Have you tried the Web Developer addon (firefox/chrome)? Not sure if it does exactly what you are asking for, but it displays the source in-page, allowing you to select specific sections of the page/source. You can use this feature and then copy-paste the relevant element you want to work with. That is if I understood your needs. If not, please clarify...

How to prevent search engine indexing of common utility words without JS

Google thinks my site is about ago, cancel, and edit. This is because those words appear on every comment. Why am I the only site who seems to suffer from this problem?
In fact, if you search Google for the words ago, cancel, and edit (without quotes), my site comes up in the #2 spot (right below Stack Overflow in spot #1). Even if Google is not smart enough to filter out these words, should not sites like reddit, who also use these same text buttons show up before mine?
http://www.google.com/#hl=en&q=ago+cancel+edit
Sites like reddit do not use JavaScript to cloak keywords, so they have found a non-JS solution. What gives?
Thank you.
EDIT: The website is popstrip.com and you can see the comment code at the bottom of any comic page.
This is from the google support forum, so it looks like Google doesn't think it's possible without Javascript or an iframe.

How do I provide info to Google about interesting/important pages on my website?

For an example of what I mean, search on Google for "Last.fm". The first result will be www.last.fm and 8 additional links are listed; "Listen", "Log in", "Music", "Download", "Charts", "Sign up", "Jazz music", and "Users". I looked around in their HTML but couldn't figure out where this information was supplied to Google.
Any help? Thanks :)
You can try looking at the Google Webmaster Tools, and provide google with a webtree of your site.
Write semantic markup.
Google work out the important links from that, they aren't told explicitly.
Google's documentation explains the process.
In your sitemap you can specify priority for pages.
The above answers are all good.
You might also try NO FOLLOWING (rel="nofollow") unimportant links on your homepage or other pages. Google will the give more weight to the followed links.
It used to be that you needed to be pagerank 4 or higher to get the sitelinks to show up if you were the top result. (and then you could edit them via webmastertools)
but it seems like google are currently changing things around. apparantly they were not clicked enough to warrant taking up valuable space on the resultspage.
Use XML sitemaps. However, be warned that sitemaps must not be misused. There is a big debate on whether sitemaps are good or not.
I met such thing before.
What I did is submitting new, accurate site page to google.
Taking a close look at the content, as well as Mata tags to see if they are accurate and descriptive. In my case I reorganized the whole content.
Most important, I back to the track of SEO, refresh content frequently. Shame to me, I had not refreshed content for a long time.
I do not know which one plays the rule, but thing works pretty well now. Hope it it is worthwhile for you as a reference.
