title: Chrome extension development: Notification when a page is opened in the background page
body: <p>I come from a mobile development background and I'm making my first chrome extension. </p>
  
  <p>I need my extension to log the opened page to a server. Can I achieve this just by having a background page (Some event that gets triggered whenever a new page is opened)? Or do I need a content script that passes the message to the background page whenever it gets notified? </p>
