I want the Google Search Home page to open when I open a new tab instead of the default generic search box. How do I change what opens when I open a new tab?

Why not use the built-in Engines, Google is on one of them and it is the default search engine. You can have your search results automatically open in a new tab, and your links on the Google results page each open in a new tab.
