Chrome

While Redditing, I came across this article several clicks in.  It discusses why Google, after its reorganization, is allocating so much money to the development of Chrome.  Chrome, as a free product, doesn't increase revenue for Google.  The chances of it seriously undercutting Internet Explorer anytime soon are minimal.  However, according to Matt Rusoff (author), by improving Chrome, Google stays abreast of what's happening the the browser world.  As Chrome increases in popularity, Google has more say in browser standards as well.  When IE absolutely dominated the browser market, web developers catered to IE.  As Firefox and Chrome both become more popular, web developers turn their attention to these as well.  No longer will IE dominate! 

I have been using Firefox for a long time, and I'm just not sure about Chrome yet.  However, I like that Google is making Chrome a priority, for the sake of our children's browsing.
