Google Chrome – Is it a browser or OS:

Chrome is the open source web browser from the house of Google, Google launched its web browser to bestow unmatched browsing experience to the users, Google chrome promises the users stability, security, simplicity and speed, unlike other web browsers. It is an all out visual retreat for the users, most of the queries and the functions are explained using visuals for simple and easy interpretation.

The comic book released by the Google explaining the features and process of the Google Chrome, will tell you how far the Google is dedicated to provide users a friendly and revolutionary web-based applications and services.

How chrome greets the user:

When you click the Google Chrome browser icon, you are greeted with the nine thumbnails of most visited sites unlike other browsers that open up with a home page or a blank page. The users can stroll through the thumbnails of their choice for websites at their convenience instead of entering the URL every time in the address bar.  Besides it has the bookmark lists, search box to enable search into the history of visited sites, and recently used tabs.

Google chrome has simplified the browser interface, they have restricted with fewer options that are necessary, unlike redundant multiple options in the interface of other browsers. When we look in to the window of other browsers, they have a menu bar, navigation bar and a title bar, but in Chrome they have completely vanquished this interface. Google Chrome has cut down lot of extra option to make it simple and fast compared to other browsers; it has just used five intrinsic right click options.

It looks like Google has made it a point to give the same stripped-down appearance like the Google home page. The browser gives a full screen appearance that gives a comprehensive browsing experience to the users, without the hassles of clouded interface that occupy 30 percent of the browser.

The Omni box the term Google uses for the address bar does a double it acts as a search bar and the address bar, when you insert a word it assume it as search and when you enter a URL it does hunt for you in the internet. It lists web pages as soon as you enter the first letter of the URL with respect to the website popularity and previously visited sites.
