POPSGoogle Chrome Syncs Bookmarks Almost Instantly While the new bookmark sync feature is welcome, it’s only part of the puzzle. Cookies, passwords, and more is what users will expect. Browser and search history are likely desirable bits of data too, but Google offers the option to provide the search history, regardless of browser. chrome-bookmark-syncI’d expect most of these additional sync points to be worked out in time for the Chrome OS " the platform is meant to power companion computers, and what better devices would benefit from an immersive browser sync experience?

POPSHow to Install Extensions in Google Chrome Interesting but i'll pass on this one. ____________________________________ For valid extensions, the Installed extensions section in the Extensions manager, displays the confirming information. Uninstalling or disabling the extensions is also just a matter of a single click from the extensions page. But all this brouhaha for just three sample extensions! It could be a big letdown, if not for third party developers working behind the scenes on extensions of their own. I can straightaway suggest to you two sites that could empower your browser by a bit… Chromeextensions Chromeplugins These sites are not associated to Google but are merely a place for independent developers. But they are the groundbreakers in every sense of the word as Chrome tries to become the internet’s Swiss army knife like Firefox. The salvo has been fired by Google. With time it could be a toss-up between browsers. We just have to pick the browser we want.

POPSGoogle Chrome Frame Is Google an Altruist or an Enterprise? If the statements of a couple of geeks at Google were to be believed, one would perhaps get convinced that Google is a company full of volunteers to serve the net-savvy humanity, with the only virtue of making the virtual world virtually seamless. But then, we know Google better than that and we can see what they are up to, when they come up with an innovation to sidestep Microsoft’s Internet Explorer with their Chrome Frame.

POPS Chrome for Clunkers
In a little more than a year, Google Chrome, the search company's speedy and innovative Web browser, has managed to win over about 3 percent of Internet surfers. Is that good or bad? It's certainly not a blockbuster, but consider the hurdles Google faces. Unlike Internet Explorer or Safari, Chrome doesn't come pre-installed on any computers. True, Mozilla Firefox faces the same problem"but Firefox, which now has about 23 percent of the market, has been around since 2004. You might also argue that Firefox captured an easy market"people who were sick of IE and wanted something better. Chrome can't do the same; everyone who wanted to leave IE has done so already, and the only folks left to convert are those who don't know any better. How do you persuade people to upgrade their browser when they don't even know what a browser is? You hide the upgrade. That seems to be the ingenious theory behind Chrome Frame, a plug-in for Internet Explorer that Google unveiled this week.

POPSGoogle Looks to Campuses for 'Cloud' Converts I still think Nicholas Carr was right on point with his book, The Big Switch. The IT departments will soon shrink or disappear. Personally I think one step further is people will start becoming free of their desktops and look more to mobile and netbooks or tablets and work in new and improved ways. Cube life is non-productive as are crowded classrooms and lecture halls. Smaller, distributed classes with real-world meetups whe needed. Perhaps it will also force companies to push departments to collaborate better.
