The future of Internet browsers

The internet as we know it is ever growing and there is a bazillion of information scattered all around the internet. However, not all websites are credible and even if they are visually entertaining, they're not worth the time. Nonetheless, most websites are informative on their own purposes. A website that talks about different topics would contain millions of gigabytes of data. Narrowing it down would help a lot not just for the website owners but for the internet users. We are people of different preferences. We have different tastes and while many stick to one preference, others have a plenitude of preferences. The internet is an active library of information where changes happen in real time. However, this does need the interference of human beings to regulate the flow of information that are somehow critical to the daily lives of humankind. The internet to be understood as a machine is the negative way of explaining what internet really is; rather, to understand it as an extension of human consciousness is somehow closer to the reality. One day the human consciousness could be preserved in a subtle form of a living thing capable of retaining information, propagating wise decisions and interaction with any life form.

Why the need to compare the above statements to mere browsers? I believe that internet browsers would play a greater role in maximizing the potential of the internet to serve the best interest of humankind. Internet browsers act not only as tools to access information but as a ground for active interactions.

Google chrome proves to be amassing vast amounts of information and this alone entails that a bigger collective consciousness is capable of improving the lives of humankind.

A Perspective of Google Chrome from a Mozilla Firefox former user

Google Chrome is by far the most awesome browser there is. It is not fully functional like Mozilla Firefox yet but it surely beats other browsers with its ability to browse faster and with lots of free space for browsing. You might require a neat browser interface without annoying pop-ups—chrome does this job excellently. Google chrome's omnibar which is coined awesome bar in firefox works pretty well but it's missing some options like changing the default search engine with just a mouse click. However, in order to do so, you have to right click in the omnibar and navigate to manage search engines. These are just a few good addictive stuff present in chrome including the option to change themes and add as many extensions as they like. If you are using firefox you must be annoyed by now with slow and freezing start-ups. In my part, I am still using firefox because IDM (Internet Download Manager) works with it seamlessly and also since google toolbar does not install or is built-in in google chrome as of now. Nonetheless, the good side about using firefox is its stability and almost all website display their contents perfectly in firefox not to mention that firefox keeps competing in the browser wars with its recent upcoming update that will make it almost as good looking and as fast as chrome—well, that's what firefox people said. Chrome pioneers in new technology and there's no doubt that chrome browser is not just a browser. It can act like an OS within a browser. If you are spending so much time in the web, you can agree with me on this one. Chrome does not eat a lot of memory and if one tab crashes, you will never lose the others because chrome isolates tab processes to protect other tabs. This is very useful if you have more than one very important tabs open like you're doing banking on one account, and you're uploading contents to your website on the other while playing an online radio on the other, and so forth. With firefox, if one tab crashes the others will be affected as well, but recently this was addressed—but still in my analysis, chrome does it better. For the developers, chrome may not be as functional yet as firefox but lately, chrome keeps up on this field. Chrome has a growing library of extensions and at a young age, this is a great leap for chrome already since firefox has been present in a long time. Some people say switching to chrome is only a waste of time. Microsoft people will back you up if you're thinking the same way. People do their businesses with internet explorer in hand and Mozilla firefox. Google chrome for them is only an amusing stuff. I cannot agree with this one because chrome is a lot better against popular browsers like firefox and internet explorer. If you want you can test chrome and disprove me.
