Google Chrome - A threat ???
Posted September 28th, 2008 by krn
Guys I downloaded Google Chrome myself to see how good it is.....Well in terms of addons it sucks.....but it loading time is pretty good. it loads pretty fast than firefox and that is something that firefox has to improve.
I know some people using chrome because of this.
There are some features that I think should be added in firefox
1. Quick Start of Firefox
2. Fast Dial should be a built-in feature rather than an addon as many people dont know about this.
3. Viewing of recent history as thumbnails like in Google Chrome
I would like all of your opinions on this.
Current stats
I was just looking at one set of browser stats here:

And I noticed that it looks like Chrome and Safari have put a small dent in Firefox adoption during the last month! The difference is small enough it could just be random fluctuations but we will see for sure in the next few months. But hey, IE is still going down, so all is still good! :)
Another thing I noticed, Macintosh usage is really climbing. See their OS stats here: http://marketshare.hitslink.com/report.aspx?qprid=9
Which reminds me, a few weeks back I went to my doctor - I almost always wear one of my Firefox T-shirts - and this time he noticed my T-shirt and exclaimed "Oh, now I know what that is! It's Firefox!" and went on to say that he had just gotten a Mac and had Firefox on it.
I also like the fact that
I also like the fact that you can easily create desktop shortcut to a web page. You can then start those as you would normally do with any application on your PC.
