Formal way of right clicking the menu to get the link in new tab is relatively slow.

Fast and smart way is…

If you have a Mouse with Scroll Button, then just click the link with the scroll button. This opens the link in new tab.

If you don’t have a Mouse with Scroll Button, then use Ctrl + Click on the link to open in new tab.

Chrome’s extension base is also growing rapidly. Though Chrome doesn’t have as many extensions as Firefox has, the growth rate of Chrome Extensions created a healthier browser war.

Here are some extensions which we think that would help you to have better browsing experience.

1. RSS Subscription Extension
This extension auto-detects RSS feeds on the page you are reading and upon finding one will display an RSS icon in the Omnibox, allowing you to click on it to preview the feed content and subscribe.

2. Webpage Screenshot
Fast&Simple extension to capture the whole webpage. Even long pages are saved in one image file. This extension lets you save PNG image of any webpage. Just one click. Designers can choose to resize the window before capturing.

3. Google Reader Notifier
Displays the Google Reader unread count. Clicking the icon shows a preview of your reading list in a popup or it can open Reader in a new tab.

4. Google Mail Checker
Displays the number of unread messages in your Google Mail inbox. You can also click the button to open your inbox.

5. goo.gl URL Shortener
Shorten url with goo.gl. Once compressed the url is automatically copied to clipboard and you can share it with Twitter, Facebook, Blogger, Delicious, Digg, MySpace, Google Reader, Gmail or your default mail client.
There is also the possibility to create custom keyboard shortcuts for shortening the url and copy to clipboard or share with any of supported services

Google gives a tough competition in Browser Wars. Remember that Firefox 3.6 got released just few days back. Within a short span of time, Google managed to release it’s next version.

Google released the new version Chrome 4.0 on Jan 25.

Supporting Extensions and Bookmark sync are considered to be the major features in this release along with other security fixes.

Though there are no major changes in the speed, it is still on the top when it comes to speed among other browsers.

Chrome replaced Firefox in Google Pack

Recently I have published a post about Google Chrome not in Google Pack.

Now Mozilla Firefox has been replaced by Chrome in Google Pack, after chrome had come out of it’s beta versions.

But still we have Mozilla Firefox at the bottom of the list in Google Pack. And this is being kept as an optional software.

This is a clear indication that Google now wants to give Chrome to its user.

Will this make any negetive impact on Firefox?

In the past years, Firefox was promoted by Google in a major way. Now Firefox had grown big in the browsers industry and it no longer required Google’s promotion.

Also not most of the internet users will download Google Pack.

Google Pack is a free collection of essential software from Google and other companies.

The content of this software pack will vary for different languages.

The strange fact is that, none of these Google Pack versions contains Google’s official browser Chrome.

Is Google not confident about their own browser?

Google Chrome is available for download. Like everyone, with a lot of curiosity, I downloaded and installed.

It took roughly 2 minutes to install the browser. It is done. Imported all my IE bookmarks. Could not import Mozilla bookmarks. No Idea why could not I import Mozilla bookmarks.

In first five minutes I found the following.

• The look and feel is cool. No toolbars now.
• Address bars are below the tabs.
• Auto hiding status bar. 
• Nice task manger.
• Simple options dialog with just three tabs.
• I could see YouTube videos without installing any plug-ins.

Just one more browser in the line. Let us take some more time to check the features.
