Would Google Chrome eat away its competitors?

When it comes to browsers, a latent war seems to have begun silently. Where there is cut throat competition and a constant battle to prove one another superior, there are a few who rein the markets on the basis of their market worthiness and credentials. Google Chrome has suddenly become an emerging threat for some its counterparts. Not only have been  the critics applauding the browser for its advanced and sturdy features but it is visibly surpassing its contenders and would soon outwit figures hence establishing itself as a superior and a well vetted product across the Worldwide industry.


Considering a perennial view of the Markets, reports point towards a declining Microsoft Internet Explorer market share which has dominated the entire show hither to. August it seems was a sour month for the software big wig. On the contrary, Firefox seemed to have gained about 0.51 percent market share and hence acquiring a total of 22.98% market share.


Safari seemed to be commanding 4.07% and Opera stood at 2.04%. Where Safari market share has been stagnant, the recently unleashed Chrome has already managed to get about 2.84%.
There is more to the story than it seems, Google seems to have confirmed on an agreement with Sony to make Chrome the default browser on some of Sony's PCs.


Now that does not sound like some really good news to Microsoft that has been bleeding profusely and hopes to remedy and save some through the much awaited launch of Windows 7.


However there have been varying market reports suggesting different market shares for different browsers. Seems like a never ending phase.


What is however important is the relentless and unconditional access to innovation and hence origin of powerful products.
