Let’s go head to head and see how they line up.
Right-click options?

IE8 looks a lot like Chrome, with a few other options. Which [...]

Google obviously wants part of [...]

Chrome Next Steps: Extension API

Chrome is an amazing browser and I’m very thankful that Google released it. It has helped set the standard much higher for browsers and for what is to come in future releases of all browsers. The primary component about Chrome that I love is how fast the JavaScript engine is. It’s amazingly [...]

Google Chrome Extensions

Google’s Chrome browser is still prepping for extensions. It really should have launched with extensions in the first place, along with a Mac and Linux version, but hey, life isn’t perfect and neither is Google.

Google Chrome Privacy

Matt Cutts, a Google extradinaire, wrote up an article talking about Chrome’s privacy settings. How private is your data? …and is Google becoming “big brother” by collecting your data?

Google Chrome: Going Over the Basics

Here is an article from Google, discussing some of the basics about Google Chrome.
A glossary of all the terms you may find in Google Chrome. It’s a good refresher course for those that want to learn more about the the nitty gritty of Google Chrome.

Google is…Not Google?

Redirects are very common with websites. Especially those that are concerned with search engines.
If you type in http://ginside.com, it will redirect to http://www.ginside.com, because that’s how I have it setup — everything points to www.
But apparently, Google is no exception, even to its own browser, with this rule.

Good job Google ;)
