Google’s online game changing browser Chrome combines
sophisticated technology that has a simple UI, to create a faster, safer and
easier exploring experience - Google’s rapid and continuous development cycle
ensures the browser continues to compete with the other hottest and advanced
web browsers offered. Launched in 2008 Google Chrome quickly dominated the
browser market being the most used browser around the world within 4 years of
the public release.
Perhaps the area Google invested nearly all of its
development time to separate from other browsers. Chrome launches extremely
quickly from your desktop, runs applications at speed on account of a powerful
JavaScript engine and loads pages rapidly using the WebKit open source
rendering serps.
Google Chrome’s most striking feature along with a substantial
factor in its popularity - the easy UI hasn’t changed much since the beta
launch in 2008. Google devoted to trimming down unnecessary toolbar space to
maximise browsing real estate. The browser comprises 3 rows of tools, the
superior layer horizontally stacks automatically modifying tabs and next to a
simple new tabs icon as well as the standard minimize & expand & close
windows controls - The middle line includes 3 navigation controls (Back,
Forwards & Stop/Refresh), a URL box which additionally allows direct Google
web searching along with a star bookmarking icon. Extensions and browser
settings icons get in line to the right of the URL box. The third row comprises
bookmark folders and installed apps.
