Google Chrome Extensions Are Now Available

Posted by kdawson on from the bloat-your-own dept.

kai_hiwatari writes "The Google Chrome Extensions site is now open for Windows and Linux users — but not yet for Mac — and contains around 300 extensions. AdBlock is not yet available, however. (The closest thing to it is Adsweep, but right now it seems to be broken. Who wants to take this on?) Does the availability of extensions put Chrome at risk of becoming bloated, like many complain about with Firefox?"

    The bloat is the users choice, you know you're adding extensions.
    Previously (as in Firefox 3) the bloat was not an option, it just came bloated unlike the base install of Chrome.
