Google’s chrome has been out to the public market for less than
72 hours and it has already reached a massive market read.
(See here) Now, when the Public API is released there is going to be a massive
flood of Apps and programs that will all-in-all help Google’s
titan browser reach the top of the food chain. If Google
does this correctly, it will be a rival to the application
stream that Mozilla’s Firefox already has.
Here are a few Apps that we feel will be a crucial part of it’s
success.

Digger
As the internet has evolved into a socialite machine, the story
sharing service by Digg has flourished in to one of the top
news sources on the web. It got that way solely by it’s
users and the stories they submit. A Digg ‘Story’ adder
that adds or diggs the story of the page you’re currently
visiting will be a way for users to help grow digg and
ultimately make Google’s Chrome a social experience that the
media and users now crave.
GMail integration
As a large company that seems to be branching out to nearly
everything, the bond that is shared between services of the
company is important for growth. Google’s Mail Service
would be a highly used, top acquired application for Chrome.
If the programmer does it right and adds a native feel,
not just a “It’s just a hyperlink to a url” effect, then this
will be revolutionary to the way we look at EMail platforms.
Being able to read the news and be alerted when my
Techcrunch RSS feed is updated
VIA email will be stellar.
Although similar to what IE/Outlook offers, it could be
much better and much more reliable than that.
Wikipedia
This should go without any explanation, but Wikipedia’s search
application with an expanded box that entails the information
versus driving right to the url would be amazing. Having
the Wikiworld at your fingertips is definitely a sweet
application to get your hands on.
A FireNES clone
For days locked in the office, ’nuff said.
Twitter App
Even though the Phale Whale and the Nasty Dancing Pirates own
and operate Twitter as a whole, Twitter is a punch-happy
fighter that seems to get knocked down and comes back
even better each round. Constantly growing and (maybe)
improving, Twitter brings users to it’s service with the drop
of it’s hat. Although Google owns Jaiku a (semi)direct
competitor of Twitter, the twitter app is an application that
needs to make it to Google’s forefront of Chrome software.
With a simple click of a button, a drop-down will appear
where the user can add any message at a given whim. How
cool is that? Being able to drop a line about an awful
song I just listened to without moving outside of my
browser.
So, that’s it’s folks, Google’s wishful lineup for the
Application API to be released soon.
Keep your fingers cross, as I have done, to get Google on
the ball to release this function.
