For being such a young browser and to be forced in the competition so quickly, Chrome as done well to hold it’s ground, it’s also collected a fan club of it’s own.

The browser did very well in security tests and continues to impress in the speed arena; making the Internet faster. But one of the things holding back Chrome has been extensions; something Firefox made an Internet browser standard.

But Mozilla didn’t refine the extension process. Their interface is still clunky, but Google made it better in Chrome.

In Chrome 4, the guys at Google have really put it to Mozilla for not refining one of the most popular features of Firefox; they have added extensions, and the extensions can be added without a restart of the program.

Yeah.

Adding extensions without having to restart the browser. You talk about a breath of fresh air and making things simpler. Chrome has done a lot of digging in in the last year. Chrome was released in September of 2008 and it has continued to progress and improve.

Google’s devotion to simplification and speed have been just astounding. With every release of Chrome the browser seems to be getting faster, and all this effort is not going unnoticed; not by the users and definitely by Mozilla. Mozilla seems to have a renewed effort in security, speed and stability. It’s amazing what a little competition can do for the soul.

In October 2009, Google added native support for HTML 5 in to it’s rendering engine. And what you can take from this is the death of Adobe Flash. With the abilities of Flash now being placed in the position of an open forum; being compatible across the board, this will make things much better in the idea of standards.

Chrome still is very new in comparison to others and while Chrome has speed on it’s side now, I wonder about after the extensions grow and people use Chrome as heavily as they use Firefox; will Chrome be as fast then…
