Thread: Google Chrome

Google's new Chrome browser, if widely adopted, is likely to have a significant impact on Internet advertising.Perhaps surprisingly for a company that depends on online ad revenue, Google has included pop-up ad concealment in Chrome. "In terms of building Chrome, it was really designed with the user in mind," a Google spokesperson explained.

Ad concealment is distinct from ad blocking because Chrome actually loads pop-up ads. This is typically a billable event, even though the ads won't be seen unless users choose to maximize the pop-up ad windows that Chrome has minimized.As a consequence, the use of Chrome may result in billings to advertisers for cost-per-impression pop-up ads that were never viewed.

The Firefox plug-in Adblock Plus prevents ads from being loaded and thus prevents advertisers from being billed for unseen ads. "This is not necessarily true for other ad-blocking solutions, however," Wladimir Palant, the software's creator, said in an e-mail.Palant estimates that 5% of Firefox users, representing almost 1% of Internet users as Firefox's market share approaches 20%, use Adblock Plus.

Tom Charvet, technical founder of online ad auditing company Click Forensics, said that based on comments from the engineers he has spoken with, the typical ad blocker stops any ad impression from being recorded.

i have uninstalled it.

seriously I don't want it be another major browser. because its too much trouble doing web development compatible for all browsers. another major browser means more problem.

I like Google Chrome because there are so much special features in this browser & another thing is that people have so much trust on google products compare with another ...

Yes you are correct Firefox is best browser.It has many addons,etc....downloading and Uploading are easy in Firefox...it's very speedy i have tested the speed at
Scanmyspeed so firefox is best.....

Chrome is still young, it's still has a lot of improvement to be done. For now I think Firefox is still the best browser out there due to its add-on's which is perfect for web development and SEO.

Read. Downloaded. Installed. Celebrating.
i adore Google Chrome! Chrome is wider every day and it is great!

What I like about Google Chrome is it open fast. I open this browser whenever I am in a hurry

mozilla firefox is the best browser.

I just use it when I'm just browsing (past time) and yes it opens fast. But if I'm working, I still prefer Firefox because of the add-ons installed on it that are relevant to my job.
