Star Chrome: Google Gives Back All Your Bases
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Wed 3rd Sep 2008 22:49 UTC
Google While Google's new Chrome web browser has been met with a lot of praise and positive responses (well, mostly, at least), there has been one nagging issue that arose quite quickly after people got their hands on Chrome: the End User License Agreement accompanying the browser. It more or less granted Google the rights to everything seen or transmitted through the browser. Google now changed the EULA, saying it was a big case of woopsiedoopsie.

So please, tell me, why does 'Opera' deserve marketshare when it can't even get the most basic of things correct - namely, rendering large mainstream sites correctly. I wouldn't care if this was some nameless website in the whop-whops, but we're talking about big name mainstream websites.


Is it perhaps because Opera is too standards compliant? Quite a few mainstream sites "break the rules" because the most common renderers are broken and the designer's target is to make sure it renders well on the common browsers. Opera, despite having an good track record of standards compliance, has too little share out there to be considered worth the effort to get it to render in Opera properly.

Well, that's what I think anyway.
