Microsoft's Next Google Target in their "Scroogled" Campaign is Chrome

Microsoft has been doing a "Scroogled" ad campaign over the past few months. They don't seem to be doing to well, but then again, I mostly follow and interact with Google fans. The latest one, shown above, is targeting Chrome. Which is one of Google's larger products. You can see Google's original ad down below.

Hangouts Extension Available on the Chrome Web Store

Yesterday at Google I/O, during the Keynote Vic Gundotra introduced us to Hangouts. Hangouts is their attempt to consolidate all of their messaging services into one service. Currently it only takes the place of Google Talk and Google+ Messenger.

Send Money To Friends Via Gmail [Google I/O 2013]

Today at Google I/O at the Moscone Center, Google introduced a ton of new features and products. One thing that was in the sandbox was being able to send money to your friends via Gmail, thanks to Google Wallet.

Basically, you'll be able to send money like an attachment in your Gmail account. It'll be rolling out over the next few months. To add money, just hover over the paperclip icon in your compose screen, and tap or click on the $ icon and send the amount you wish to send.

How many of you are getting excited for this new feature to rollout to your Gmail? Let us know in the comments down below how you feel about it.

Chrome is the Most Popular Browser with 750 Million Users Worldwide

Google Chrome is a pretty popular web browser. Today at Google's developer event in San Francisco, Google announced that Chrome is the most popular browser in the world and has over 750 million users. That's almost twice as many users as Chrome had this time last year.

Chrome is a pretty popular browser that is now turning into an OS, hence Chrome Central. Google is also working on Chrome OS and a few Chromebooks like the Chromebook Pixel. So how many of you use Google Chrome as your browser? If not, what browser do you use?

Why Would Google make an Android-Powered Laptop?

Lately, we've heard all kinds of rumors regarding Google working on an Android-powered laptop. Now this makes little sense to most Google fans because Google already has a desktop Operating System. That is Chrome OS. While it's not all that productive, it is what it was meant to be. A simple, light-weight, cloud-based operating system. So why do we need Android laptops?

How to Add Swap Memory to your Chrome OS Device

Many of us that use Chrome, probably have about 10 more tabs open at any time. In fact, right now I have about 15 open, split between two windows. And because of that, Chrome uses a ton of RAM. Which is one major downside for Chromebooks since they - for the most part - come with 2GB of RAM. The Chromebook Pixel does come with 4GB of RAM though. When the amount of RAM you have goes down, you'll start to see lag, and some tabs will refresh when you activate them. Which that in itself really frustrates me. But luckily there's somewhat of a work around. It's called Swap Memory. I have it enabled on both my Samsung Chromebook (the ARM-one) and the Chromebook Pixel.
