google is taking over the internet!

i have downloaded the chrome already, but i guess i’d be more devoted to chrome if they have addons that mozilla has.

as of the moment i am still using firefox because of the addons… =)

[...] surprising and I’ve sort of expected this to happen (though not this soon). We even saw how FireFox ran to Yahoo! for some [...]

I say, this is what’s great with FOSS.

If you see something bad in the design of the existing one, make a new one from their sources.

I bet IE can’t evolve into such unless sources are shared so others can help putting-in improvements.

Don’t be too set on Chrome, FF still has the best web developer tools… For browsing Chrome does beat Ie in this respect…

Nope, it won’t be happening soon unless Mozilla can cancel the agreement they had with Google about the extension of Google Search as default page for every Firefox distribution.

And as I’ve said before, the extension was signed a few days before Google announced Chrome to the world.

1) Google knows Mozilla will move to Yahoo search, so they extended the deal
2) It also gives Mozilla more money, thus people can’t just say Google is competing with Mozilla (they just gave more money right?)
3) Google can’t buy Yahoo, Google has a deal with Yahoo (which Yahoo can cut anytime), Google will not easily give Yahoo Firefox’s chunk.

I’m a chrome convert. But I still use firefox for e-mails.

While chrome was aimed at IE, I agree that it affected Firefox the most.

Well, since both are open-source, let’s just hope that they both adopt the best features of each other.

Oh Lordy! Can’t they just work together? This business is really cut-throat.

Well this just further validates the point that Chrome is eating into Firefox’s share of the market.

Would Firefox follow in Netscape’s footsteps? Oh noes!

I’ve noticed that already and thought of blogging about it too… But I guess, you’re the first one again.

default search would probably change as well. they should give more love to the one who’s currently loving them, right? im guessing the change will take effect sooner than we think.
