Google To Air Chrome Ads On TV
mikesd81 writes "Google plans on advertising with spots promoting its Chrome browser this weekend. Google Japan had already released a 30-second video promoting Chrome on YouTube, but the company will distribute that video through the Google TV Ads network this weekend as an experiment to see if it can drum up interest in Chrome. Google advertised their browser on the New York Times' website on Wednesday."

You say this like it's a novel point but it is exactly true. ~99% of the market out there is uninformed and does not want to be informed. I believe this is what the previous poster was referring to. As much as this makes every slashdotter wince with blinding pain, it's true. People just want to be told what to use. Microsoft knows that, and now it's obvious that Google knows that. I wish Linux would come to terms with that but that's another post.
I dare say people will start blindly following this advertising and maybe fall back to pre-installed IE8 when Chrome does not work.

Look, Chrome is significantly speedier than Firefox and terms of both usability and running the program. For me that's all that really matters, so I use chrome. I know, it's doesn't have addons, but that's really only a deal breaker for adblock, which I don't use anyway for moral reasons.
