I think that the inclusion of webkit in itself is enough to garner pretty wide adoption, and the fact that it has the Google brand on it. Google is uniquely poised to deploy a browser in that they have such a massive userbase. Admittedly the feature’s you’re talking about here are important but I think despite their lack of inclusion we’ll see a rising trend in usage.

Its very interesting that Google has decided to take on a project like this. They obviously have such an interest in how people access the web, it was only a matter of time before they took things into their own hands. It is going to be very interesting to see how this pans out.

Mozilla is far most better than chrome. if you compare Google chrome with Mozilla Firefox from the point of view of add-on then we can see the real difference. by using a Firefox ad-on many things can be done like you can find do follow and no follow blogs in chrome where you can find it? like this there are many other options which r very helpful for different group of people. chrome can’t be better than mozzila. and about IE better not to talk.

>I don’t expect Chrome to become a leader in the browser space. I expect it to be about…pressuring Mozilla into solving the problems that Google cares about

I suspect you may be right. I’m not sure how many browsers the market can sustain; with IE’s dominant share, it seems that something has to give between Chrome and Firefox. And you rightly point out the challenge of surrounding development; I can’t quite make the switch to Chrome because of all the software I have plugged in and use regularly with Firefox.

Mozilla beats chrome by a few light years. The darned IE is just hopeless.

I really hope they will continue to develop Mozilla ( Google is planning to dump it soon)

Chrome is too simple.

I tried using Chrome, but it simply cannot best Firefox. The problems I found with Chrome is that some sites load incredibly slow, while others load blazing fast. I’m not sure why. Another problem I have with Chrome is that it doesn’t have the huge amount of plugins firefox does.
