While I somewhat agree with you're comment, however you're not addressing the fact that Google is using this to push their web browser Chrome.


Here's me addressing it: I don't care.

They aren't locking other browsers out (my FF 11 on Linux is working adequately). They're going to market regardless, I'd rather see things like this than raw ads.

I assume you never use Google since they just use search to push their ads?


Well it seems that Google seemed to care enough to change it:

Kudos to Google for fixing this.


As long as those features are standards compliant, I'm fine with it. This type of competition is a good thing (tm). It pushes the web forward.
