Chrome
Google Chrome, launched by Google in 2008, quickly became the world’s most popular web browser, now holding over 60% of the market share. Known for its speed and simplicity, Chrome is full of hidden surprises. For instance, if your internet goes down, the Dino Game appears—press the spacebar and guide the dinosaur past cacti! Another fun fact: Chrome’s Incognito Mode doesn’t make you invisible online; it just prevents saving local history. Chrome: fast, fun, and smarter than you think!
