What is Google Chrome - Best Blogs Asia
Writing a quick review on using Google Chrome, as people are emailing me about it.
In March 2009, Big G released a new working version of Google Chrome as a competitor to Internet Explorer, Opera and Firefox. It’s currently only available for Windows, but it has the benefits of being open-source with built-in support for web and search applications.
Browser Features
The browser showcases tabs in a different way as you can isolate certain tabs. You can also run video direct from the browser, isolate pop ups, webfonts support, link to Web Applications and create third party plugins. It also supports various tools such as:
- Search
- Desktop Search
- Gmail
- Virtual Drive
- Web browsing
- G Docs
Using Google Chrome for Websites
For web site owners, Big G’s browser will be a useful addition. What I found useful was support for Javascript heavy sites and web applications, site locked quickly and less resources were used up on my computer.
Integration with RSS feeds worked well since they were instantly loaded in the browser.

Conclusion
It’s still a bit buggy and being Windows XP compatible only, the launch feels a little premature. I do believe it’s a useful addition to my browser collection for testing compatibility issues, loading many sites at once in different browsers and also for ease of use with RSS feeds.
My current preference is to use IE for do to do usage as I’m comfortable with the layout, Firefox for site testing and Google Chrome for final testing and multi-site viewing.
