    Default Plugins ARE Coming

    For those wondering where the plugins are... when they'll come... and finally... IF THEY'LL COME AT ALL. Be reassured, Google reaffirmed today that plugins WILL be available but during the Beta they are working to make sure plugins will be completely stable (unlike FF).

    This is awesome news, it was the one feature of Chrome that was keeping it from really becoming THE browser to use, and I'm glad to see Google is planning on implementing it.

    Yes it is good news tho vague in the extreme.

    If they take to long to implement then they will lose some good momentum they have going right now.

    The two things that hold me back from using it as my main is Ad-block and autoselect new tab when I middle-click a link. Yes I know about the keyboard shortcut and can manually move the mouse up and select it.

    But that is not how I roll. I need my left-hand free for other things. Coffee,phone,soda,pen to write down things,etc.. And that issue alone is a deal-breaker for me. Give me auto-select new tab like firefox and Ad-block and I am Chrome!

    Always have been. Not all of them. Not even most. But I've tried many extensions in my time and came across a few of those.
