There’s no doubt that Google Chrome browser is the best browser in terms of speed (it will be interesting to see how Microsoft’s much awaited IE9 will answer it), we have already saw why Google Chrome is so fast. After launching Chrome, Google announced they will launch a new version of Chrome which will support extensions and with that a lot of developers started creating a lot of extensions for Chrome.
Till now there are a lot of extensions (nearly 4,000) available for Chrome and there are some unique extensions too which a Firefox user might want to have. So if you are a Firefox user and want to have use a particular Chrome extension than there is a new Addon in the Firefox Addon Gallery which lets you install Google Chrome Extensions on Firefox. It’s called Google Chrome Extensions Manager.
“In case you haven’t guessed it yet, the Google Chrome extensions manager allows you to install Chrome extensions on Firefox. Well, that may be a bit of an overstatement, it doesn’t work that well at the moment, as it’s pretty much an alpha release, but the idea behind it is certainly original. When it will be complete, however, it should allow users to run any Chrome extension in Firefox just like it would run natively.” – Softpedia
How to install this Firefox extension :
- Open your Firefox
, and download the Firefox extension here. - The Firefox comes with a pre-installed Google Chrome extension, called “readme”. Since it’s a Google Chrome extension, you can download it & install it in Chrome (same code
). get it here.
Well I don’t found any useful extension in Google Chrome which isn’t available in Firefox, did you?
I think IE9 could have a chance if it had extensions that similar to Firefox (Chrome extensions aren’t as powerful) and easy to build. Speed isn’t a huge factor but if it is as fast as Safari it will do fine.
Well even I didn’t find chrome extension such powerful. Chrome extension gallery is increasing at a fast pace,one day it will definitely cross FF add ons gallery.

Chrome is better in two ways first in it is too fast and second is spacious window, but Firefox extensions makes Chrome less popular in browser world.
