It came to my attention that if you’re using explorer than in Google page Chrome advertisement appears. But if you’re using Firefox, no advertisement. Is Google supporting Firefox and open source? If so, why have they developed Google Chrome? __________________ fha 203k loan mortgage loan rates
In answer to your first question, they're doing it to try to get people to stop using IE. if you're a decent web designer, you can design one page that looks good in Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Opera, without having to worry about whether the page will be rendered correctly. It takes a lot of debugging and special coding to make a web page look right in Internet Explorer, so web developers like to push an "anything but IE" phillosophy on users. Google does support open source in general, but I think this reason is more specific to web standards. As for the second question, there are many reasons for them to develop Chrome. One is to push web standards support to more users, as mentioned above. Another is to get more people using a brower with fast Javascript execution - when Chrome was announced, it was many times faster at javascript than anyone else. Safari has since surpassed Chrome, and Firefox is pretty close, but at the time, this seemed more necessary. Another recently-revealed reason is that the recently announced Chrome OS needs a built in web browser, and they had to build one anyways, so they might as well launch it immediately for Windows and build a user base.
