- pg 16y agoI didn't say I'd rather fund Chrome projects, but that it seemed Chrome might do more to protect us from an Apple monopoly on smartphone apps than Android. The more powerful Chrome lets browser-based apps be, the less developers need to build native apps to do what they want. At the limit of that process, the iPhone and iPad are merely beautiful devices that run browsers. Safari, of course, but if Chrome took the lead in adding features to browsers to let apps do more, Safari would have to follow suit, however grudgingly.
