After a year long wait, Google has officially made more than 300 extensions available for Google Chrome users to plug them on. There are already lots of great extensions available such as:
- Google Mail Checker (displays the number of unread messages)
- Google Translate (easily translates an entire webpage with a click of a button)
- Google Wave Notifier (notify when you have unread Waves)
And many many more over at Google Chrome Extensions official page.
Oh, on another side of news, Google Chrome is now officially available for Mac and Linux (still in Beta)!
For a more geeky technical stuffs on the Google Chrome Extensions, watch the video below on how Chrome extension works:

Well this is what i’m waiting for, the extension will make browser more comfortable of course. But wait.. Will Google own my internet?!
Google already owns mine
(Gmail, Search, Google Docs, Calendar, Maps, you name it…..)
There’s a hack to make extensions work on Mac, grack.com is where all the Mac users are supposedly going.
I’m so excited for this! haha was so excited that there’s finally google chrome for mac yesterday.
arg. it’s not available for the mac version!
I thought there’s a Google Chrome beta for Mac coming out as well (you may have to upgrade your Chrome to the beta one though)
Or you mean, the extensions don’t work yet for Google Chrome Mac?
Great news! Thanks for this.
By the way, can I post it on my blog? =D
Of course I’ll mention yours on the post.
Feel free buddy, sorry for my late reply
Thanks for the linky!
Thanks! Just added it! Check it out! http://thetechguia.wordpress.com/2009/12/12/finally-google-chrome-extensions/
I know Google is jealous of firefox so they are competing with firefox by having a broswer simular to firefox. Heck like with the zimbra email client I noticed the download backup interface window looked a lot like a firefox type window.
So google and yahoo are jealous of firefox and want to invest in a product like that.
I guess Google is jealous of everything then lol
Google and yahoo want to take in control the entire market and certainly won’t give up. So be ready for more similar action.
