Google Chrome: changing browsers forever

In the scheme of things it really wasn’t that long ago that Microsoft’s Internet Explorer doomed Netscape Navigator to a grisly death. Pretty much every computer in the world had a copy of IE installed because of the way Microsoft marketed their browser with their operating system. Basically, it came as one.

People around the world shouted out in protest. Microsoft was taking over the world! They’re killing the competition! This is bad for the internet! But it didn’t take long for other browsers to fill the void left by Netscape’s departure. Apple’s Safari browser has gained a nice chunk of market share, and Safari on the iPhone is going great guns. Of course, Firefox is going wonderfully well too. Despite these inroads by the smaller browsers though, IE continues its market dominance.

But is there a contender to the throne? I think there might just be! Today I discovered a new browser developed by Google, called Google Chrome. In short, it is very cool! As their blurb says, traditional browsers were never designed to view complicated web applications (like internet banking) but were instead built just to view web pages. Google Chrome changes all that though, and it’s going to turn the market on its head!

The biggest thing for many users will be the way it manages downloads. So, using 2Large2Email just got easier (and you thought it was impossible!), which is good for everyone.

Oh yes, this will be big!
