Chrome, a Next Generation Web Browser

Ever since it was created, the Google Chrome Web Browser has proved to be a real competitor to other browsers such as Internet Explorer and Safari because it offered the speed everyone loves out of their web browsers and Google has been adding features ever since. Google has developed a powerful browser that includes features like their new Chrome Web Store and their "cloud" syncing feature. This browser was followed by Google's Chrome OS which includes many of the features of the Google Chrome Web Browser and is becoming a leading OS contender.



Interface:
The interface of the Google Chrome Browser is very simple and clean. The open pages in your web browsers, or tabs, are positioned at the top of the screen and are easy to access while you are browsing the web. Bellow the tabs are a few simple buttons, a forward and back button, a refresh button, a long address bar, and a spot for extensions and tools. Whenever you open a tab in Chrome you are brought to a page showing your bookmarks at the top, a section for your apps, your most visited sites, as well as you recently closed tabs.

The bookmarks are displayed across a gray bar that clearly show the bookmarks and allow for easy access. Right below the bookmark bar is the section where your applications reside. When you visit the Chrome Web Store you can download a large number of web apps that are shown in the app section of any tab you open. The apps are displayed with large, colorful icons and are arranged in a grid that lets you easily find your apps. The most visited and recently visited sections below the apps are shown exactly like the bookmarks. The entire UI of the browser is simple and easy to fallow, with a very easy learning curve for anyone.

Features:
The Google Chrome browser offers a ton of great features. One of the best features of Chrome is its cloud feature. The cloud allows you to sync all your apps, bookmarks, settings, and everything else to the cloud so no matter what computer you are using, you always have everything you need. Another, newer feature of Chrome is their Chrome Web Store I talked about earlier. The Chrome Web Store allows you to download a lot of different types of apps from games to productivity. The web apps allow you to do almost anything you could do on a normal computer on the web. Along with the other features, speed is one of the most useful. Chrome is one of the fastest browsers out there and allows you to get where you are going faster. Along with these features, the Chrome browser offers a ton of other stuff that make this a great web browser.

Wrap Up:
The Chrome web browser is a great choice for your web browsing experience and is simple and easy to use for anyone. The browser offers a huge number of features and is blazing fast, letting you get where ever you want faster. The Chrome web browser is one of the best options out there and is something you should all try out.
