Google Chrome Needs More Desktop Testing

Tags: | | |
Google Chrome is barely a day into beta, so I don’t expect it to be perfect. I do, however, expect it to run. I’m sure Chrome runs Web apps like lightning, with its process isolation and V8 JavaScript engine. Google seems to have forgotten, however, that while Chrome runs Web apps, it still runs on the [...]

    Try to download via IE, I downloaded mine early this morning via IE7 (I fell asleep last night waiting for the launch lolz).

    Also, tried contacting Google yet?

    Then for my experience, just follow my name-link ^_^

    Check this out:

    First, define “Services”:

    1.1 Your use of Google’s products, software, services and web sites (referred to collectively as the “Services” in this document and excluding any services provided to you by Google under a separate written agreement) is subject to the terms of a legal agreement between you and Google. “Google” means Google Inc., whose principal place of business is at 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, United States. This document explains how the agreement is made up, and sets out some of the terms of that agreement.

    Second, the issue:

    11.1 You retain copyright and any other rights you already hold in Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. By submitting, posting or displaying the content you give Google a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling Google to display, distribute and promote the Services and may be revoked for certain Services as defined in the Additional Terms of those Services.

    1) The word “through” was used.
    2) Google Chrome is a “product” of Google and thus is included in “Services”

    In other words,
    “By submitting, posting or displaying the content you give Google a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Content which you submit, post or display on or through, the Services.”

    means Google CAN do all of those to YOUR CONTENT which you submit, post or display on or THROUGH, the Services (example: Google Chrome).

    I agree that it would be better if Chrome was launched with a full offline installer.
