Google's Chrome May Be Great, But Will It Matter?

Chrome adoption will be slow. Most people just don't care that much. In order to use Chrome you have to actively go out and find it, download it and choose to run it. Customers need someone continually reminding them to choose something else. This is Apple's advantage in having over 200 stores. People will need a compelling reason to switch. Perhaps in two years they will come up with one. In the meantime Firefox, Safari and IE will continue to develop. I wish them well but I doubt they'll take the world by storm.

One interesting point is that Chrome shares the same open-source code base with Safari and with the browser used by Nokia and some others.
