Chrome and Firefox

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?

Re: Chrome and Firefox

Maybe they just want to reduce the number of IE users. If someone is using Firefox, then they either:

A. Know enough about computers to know better then rely on what comes preinstalled with the OS
B. Have someone else who falls into option A, and they blindly followed advice given by said person

It's much easier to fight for market share if there is a relatively equal distribution. Firefox is proven as far as a Browser, while Chrome is still love it or hate it (I love both). Google also has the mentality not to be evil, perhaps this is there way of showing that they're not all in it for themselves?

Re: Chrome and Firefox

My IE7 starts to freeze from time to time and it getting on my nerves so I decide to test another browser.I find Google Chrome on the web...downloaded it and install on my P.C.It runs smooth and fast but after 7days the same problem came up.So I go to the web again and ask who*s the fastest browser and there was recomendation for a award winning browser for year 2009 Mozilla.I have uninstalled Google Chrome and install Mozilla.I am finally satisfied...The Mozilla works perfect...even better and faster than IE7.The story doesn*t end here.In the mean time I find out that some servers doesn*t work properly that days and nowadays the both broswers...IE7 and Mozilla Firefox are back in race.
