GOOOoooogle chrome

Google Chrome. After hesitating and comtemplating for so long, I decided to give Chrome a try after hearing so much about it. And wow was I shocked! I have 3 browers now and Chrome would have had overtaken Firefox to become my No1. =)

One can say that Chrome is a lightweight browser with simple functions and User Interface yet enough for light browsing. And it doesn’t support addons…….yet (if it does, I think it’ll become the best browser out there. And I’m not kidding! haha)

Although without addons, and thanks to the author of Blogote, he has created a few bookmarklet which will give you additional benefits. Just click on the hyperlink and drag them to your ’bookmark bar’. These are only some of the items which may prove useful to you.

Disable/block Ads on webpage (Adblock for chrome)

Adblock+ Just drag and drop this link/bookmarklet on your bookmarks bar.Ad block removes “java, flash, background music, and third-party iframes.” Thus it does a handy job of blocking the ads on a webpage. who says only firefox addon block ads ? Chrome too has a Adblock type addon now!
