Google Chrome is an excellent browser. It boasts great speed and high compatibility with numerous sites. Chrome fairs especially well on older computers with less processing power. It also supports extensions to expand it's functionality. One of my favorites is Adblock Plus. As mentioned in the 2 Simple Firefox Add-ons post, Adblock Plus blocks all of those annoying ads on websites and even protects you from malware. Adblock Plus specializes in blocking some of the most intrusive advertisements including trailers and commercials on Youtube.com. If you're a big fan of watching videos, you'd be shocked at the amount of time you would save by skipping those 1-3 minute trailers on Youtube videos. It also blocks several malicious sites or embedded content from malicious sites. It's great first line of defense when browsing. I honest can't understand how everyone doesn't have this add-on. Of course, I'd imagine advertisers like Google aren't happy about it, but they allowed to exist. In the earlier days of Chrome, Adblock Plus had limited functionality compared to Chrome. Now it's basically on-par with Firefox's version of Adblock Plus. Download Adblock Plus for Chrome today.
