Google Turns 10…and a Chrome follow up.
By Tom on Sep 6, 2008 in web2.0
Here is a quick summary of Google’s progression over the last 10 years presented by Fortune on Cnnmoney.com. Its hard to believe 10 years has past since Larry and Sergey started out of a garage in Menlo Park. Congrats to Google for their success and many years of success to come.
I just want to review the past week for Google – Chrome launched after a premature start out of the gate. Following the launch, there was an immediate positive response in fact, that according to some statistics gatherers it is already beating Opera in terms of numbers, taking in a little over 2.6% market share.
Immediately I noticed some great browsing speed and a lack of crashing on my ol’Windows-driven PC — even when I started to browse some pretty rich internet content sites. However , until Chrome supports plug-in’s and Apple Leopard, I will not even consider making Chrome my primary browser.
In closing, if you thought the premature release of the comic book was misstep, looks like copy-paste got the best of someone at Google. The original EULA that everybody did not read before accepting the download gave Google ownership over all user generated content posted to the internet through their browser. Pretty Evil stuff for a company that strives not to be evil
