Google Announces End for Chrome Frame



SEO Services Company India
Google is retiring Chrome Frame, its secure Internet Explorer plug-in, as of January 2014.
Chrome Frame was introduced in 2009 to bring a “modern engine to old versions of Internet Explorer — to allow developers to bring better experiences to more users, even those who were unable to move to a more capable browser,” Google Chrome engineer Robert Shield said in a blog post.
Now that most people are using modern browsers, Google has decided Chrome Frame has out-lived its usefulness.
Google is requesting all developers with apps that steer users to Chrome Frame, encourage visitors to upgrade to a modern browser.
Chrome Frame may be going the way of the dodo bird, but Chrome for businesses is still going strong and Shield suggests companies who were using Chrome Frame switch to Chrome for Business.
Google recently updated the features in its Chrome for Business management console, allowing companies to install and manage Chrome for their employees. According to Shield, Chrome for Business combined with Legacy Browser Support allows users to switch seamlessly between Chrome and another browser.
“It’s unusual to build something and hope it eventually makes itself obsolete, but in this case we see the retirement of Chrome Frame as evidence of just how far the Web has come,” he said.
