Python Selenium opens blank page and error with Chromium web browser?

Question

Good code with Firefox

from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
browser.get('http://seleniumhq.org/')

However, when I change it to Chrome (Chromium), I'm getting the following error

Error Loading Extension

Failed to load extension from: .
Manifest file is missing or unreadable

The Chromium web browser opens a blank page instead of "http://seleniumhq.org/"

This is the code for Chromium. What should I do to fix this problem?

from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Chrome()
browser.get('http://seleniumhq.org/')
