Google Chrome to Support Greasemonkey

This is a huge win for Chrome users like myself. Greasemonkey is an awesome platform within a platform, that supports userscripts.

I’ve been a huge fan of Google Chrome on Windows, as it’s been the fastest browser I’ve ever used. I did a comparison of Chrome vs Internet Explorer, and Chrome definitely won.

The idea of being able to suddenly hook in 40,000 new extensions is a huge win for Chrome users. Greasemonkey has an entire community behind it and it was a brilliant idea to tap into that community.

Chrome itself has been slow with extensions, but they have been rolling out day by day. I love my extensions far too much, in which I use a ton of Firefox extensions, and sometimes my favorite Google Greasemonkey Scripts.

Right now, I’m only using a few extensions for Chrome. One being the PageRank extension, another being the Gmail extension.
