Simple Google Chrome Extension for BlogCFC Feed Reader

Today, I've read how to create Google Chrome extension. It's interesting and want to create Blog Feed Reader. That's why I kept going with this article and create a simple extension for blogCFC.

First of all, I need to create a folder for the extension. Then, create manifest.json file and needed to put following coding into it.

view plain print about
1{
2    "name": "Against All Odds Feeds",
3    "version": "1.0",
4    "description": "Fetching RSS Feeds from BlogCFC",
5    "browser_action": {
6        "default_icon": "pps.gif", <!--- icon --->
7        "popup": "RSS.html" <!--- file which read RSS --->
8    },
9    "permissions": [
10        "http://www.ppshein.net/"
11    ]
12}

After that, I need a image to represent the extension on Google Chrome Toolbar.

Google release new open-source browser

Google gonna release new open-source browser known as Chrome to fight with Internet Explorer 8.0 and Firefox 3.0. They include new features such as isolated tags design and powerful javascript engine.

Here is the speech of Pichai and Upson :

"When a tab is closed in Google Chrome, you're ending the whole process," according to the comic. "You can look under the hood with Google Chrome's task mananger to see what sites are using the most memory, downloading the most bytes and abusing your CPU" so you can place "blame where blame belongs."

Google also promised "improved speed and responsiveness across the board."

"We also built a more powerful JavaScript engine, V8, to power the next generation of web applications that aren't even possible in today's browsers," Pichai and Upson wrote.

Like OpenSocial and Android, Chrome will be an open source initiative.

"We owe a great debt to many open source projects, and we're committed to continuing on their path," they wrote. "We've used components from Apple's WebKit and Mozilla's Firefox, among others -- and in that spirit, we are making all of our code open source as well. We hope to collaborate with the entire community to help drive the web forward."

Chrome browser is out

Google release their browser called "Chrome" today. As Google style, we must have internet if we want to install Chrome browser. Any offline users cannot install it. Honestly, GUI is really cool and screen size is more wide than FireFox and IE. But, I haven't tested the security of Chrome yet.

The facts of Google Chrome I don't like

I use and find any bugs Since Google launched their Browser called Chrome. Meanwhile, I've found some facts I don't like, especially it's not convenient for me only.

  • the properties box cannot appear promptly whenever I wanna download images by the way of clicking on it.
  • I cannot check the properties of images whenever I click on it. (in firefox, whenever I do right-click on each images, properties box appear and show attributes of it.)

I've found these two facts yet.
