I tried to trick it with User Agent Switcher, but no go. It's not just examining the user agent -- it's looking for window.chrome, too.
Having watched the video and the word-spelling at the end, there's nothing about this sort of content that strikes me as stuff that can't be done in other browsers. And isn't that supposed to be the point of experiments like this?
Google should be showing us stuff that can't be done in any browser but Chrome because of those other browsers' technical limitations or deficiencies ... not just because they have the wrong user agent.
- Funnnny 15y agoGoogle showed that this is Chrome showcase, a Chrome experiment, isn't that clear ?
- jawns 15y agoOh, they certainly have a right to call it a Chrome experiment, but the question is: What unique thing about Chrome are they trying to show off in this "experiment"? Google could just as easily call ... <html><body><p>Hello world!</p></body></html> ... a Chrome experiment, but that's not going to make me switch from Firefox.
- Toady 15y agoYes, we know. That's the point. They shouldn't have because there was no reason to.
