 Send to email | Google Hawking Chrome Overseas, On YouTube (GOOG) in DELLHPQGOOG |  By Silicon
el 03-Nov-2008 |  Google's (GOOG) Chrome browser has miniscule market share. So what's Google doing to get more people using their new browser? Quite a lot, actually, it's just that those of us in the English-speaking world aren't seeing much of it.

It's great Google is making a more robust effort to get their new browser out there than a lot of us may be recognizing. But for Chrome to really take off, Google needs to start inviting developers to build the types of extensions and add-ons that have made Firefox so popular. And probably start paying companies like Dell (DELL) and HP (HPQ) to pre-install it on new PCs. (And where's that Chrome for Mac?)
