Google Chrome still has a lot to do

Posted December 19, 2008 by Shoaib Hashmi

Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

Google’s browser Chrome is out of the beta and so it can be a part of any deal or promotion. Now when you try to install Google Earth from XP or Vista OS, you will be faced by a totally unrelated page (pictured above). Also you will see a pre-selected option saying Include Google Chrome, a new web browser for Windows.Though this pre-selected option appears at the top, Google still thinks that people will just click on Agree and Download without reading the complete content.

Also before Chrome is bundled with Google Earth, Google will trick you to install its toolbar with the pre-selected option saying Search Google Earth from your web browser (Installs Google Toolbar). I think you just need to have a good and product, and people will start coming. What you think, will it make any difference?

Small feedback, Pownce goes down but this still showing pownce social sharing icons above the tags. [http://getsatisfaction.com/pownce/topics/pownce_read_only_archive]
