arstechnica.com — Google Chrome is heading for a full release next month and the company aims to build relationships with OEMs in an effort to bring the browser to a mainstream audience. In order to beat the big blue "e", Google will have to learn some lessons from Firefox.

I would not use that butt-ugly browser if you paid me. What they hell were they thinking with that hideous UI design? Those tabs - ugggggh.... I'll stick with FF thanks.

Is there any way to do a full text history search in Firefox? Maybe an extension?This is the one feature I desperate want but it appears only Opera and Chrome support it. Initially, when people told me Firefox was switching to SQLite I thought this was on the agenda. But instead we just get a redone bookmark interface.

Hello, Diggers!Let me introduce you to Jerrycurly (AKA, Moe the Bully) the famed flamer. He specializes in FILS (Flame In Lieu of Substance), saying things such as 'f**king stupid' to make his point, use of exclamation points and caps lock and in general distracting from productive discourse by injecting record breaking toxicity into digg. His caffeine-drenched, expletive-filled commentary is usually defined by officious fan-boy rants that demonstrate an emotionally charged zeal usually reserved for Thanksgiving day political arguments with the family or debating-religious-matters melt down screaming matches. Here I see he's using that tone to defend IE. Hmmm.

Wow, I didn't even mention the part about synopsizing Khast's life thusly: "Your entire life is meaningless."But then he goes further with the Suicide Rant. Suicide, Moe?! Isn't this a, uh, "conversation" about Internet Explorer? Whoa.

Chrome will never do #4 directly because then it has to support XUL. I've read many people complaining about how slow XUL is. There will most likely be some porting of plugins over to whatever Chrome finalizes their plugin infrastructure (which is planned for first half of 2009, AFAIK.Read more here...<a class="user" href="http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/extensions">http://dev.chromium.org/developers/design-document ...</a><a class="user" href="http://www.chromeplugins.org/extensions/chrome-extensions-coming-soon/">http://www.chromeplugins.org/extensions/chrome-ext ...</a><a class="user" href="http://www.googlechromeplugins.com/plugins-talk/">http://www.googlechromeplugins.com/plugins-talk/</a>
