    Chrome Frame Leaves Beta, All Set to Hijack an IE Near You


    Posted: 23 Sep 2010
    Google’s controversial Chrome Frame browser plug-in is now out of beta and ready for prime time. Chrome Frame is an Internet Explorer plug-in that replaces the default IE rendering engine, which is lacking in support for web standards, with the more modern and capable engine that powers Google’s Chrome browser. It essentially embeds Google’s browser inside any tab or window within Microsoft’s browser, giving even the older, antiquated versions of IE the gift of enhanced JavaScript rendering and support for HTML5 technologies like embedded audio and video.

    I used Chrome Frame for a while. Whislt it was okay, it seems sort of pointless. Might aswell just use Chrome.

    Looks like a good thing to me, don't think the hard core IE users will go for this, but great for the average user.

    Would be better to just use Chrome

    "Google is getting like the Microsoft"

    Ugh, yeah. What did you expect? This is business and has very little to do with Bill Gates, Sergey Brin or Steve Jobs.
    As for philanthropy I imagine all these gentlemen are doing good things with their money.
    I know the "Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation" donated all the computers to my local library.
    Sadly our current Government is trying to close it.

    As for Chrome Frame, I don't know enough about it or it's implications to comment.
    As has already been said, why not just use Chrome?
    I do.:)
