*released ‘2 september 2008’*
.
*’google chrome’ is a ‘freeware web browser’ developed by ‘google’*
.
(it was first released in 2008, (‘microsoft windows’) + was later ported to [‘linux’ / ‘macOS’ / ‘iOS’ / ‘android’])
(‘google chrome’ is also the main component of ‘chrome OS’, where it serves as a platform for running ‘web apps’)
(‘google’ releases the majority of chrome’s ‘source code’ as the ‘chromium open-source project’)
(a notable component that is not ‘open-source’ is the built-in ‘adobe flash player’ (that ‘chrome’ has disabled by default since ‘september 2016’)
(‘chrome’ used the ‘WebKit’ layout engine until ‘version 27’)
(as of ‘version 28’, all ‘chrome’ ports (except the ‘iOS port’) use ‘blink’)
(‘blink’ –> a ‘fork’ of the ‘WebKit’ engine)
(as of ‘november 2016’, ‘StatCounter’ estimates that ‘google chrome’ has a 63% worldwide usage share of ‘web browsers’ as a ‘desktop browser’)
(it also has ‘51% market share’ across all ‘platforms’ combined’)
(because it is also the “most popular browser for ‘smartphones'”)
.
[its success has led to ‘google’ expanding the “chrome” brand name on various other products such as…]
‘chrome-cast’
(‘digital media player’)
‘chrome-book’
(‘laptop’)
‘chrome-bit
(a ‘dongle’)
(to be plugged into ‘HDMI port’ of a television)
(so that it can double as a ‘computer’ running the ‘chrome OS’ operating system)
(then link bluetooth ‘keyboard’ + ‘mouse’ to the TV)
(‘HDMI’ – “high definition multi-media inter-face”)
.
.
‘chrome-box’
(a ‘form factor PC’)
(aka ‘net-top’)
(simpler than the average ‘laptop’)
(for the most ‘basic’ tasks)
(like ‘surfing the web’)
.
‘chrome-base’
(a more ‘advanced’ version of ‘chromebit’?)
(to customize any PC to your liking)
