is google chrome and chrome browser different?


ambition

I have Ubuntu 12 in my PC. In the process of installing useful software, I've been looking for browsers other than Firefox (which is the default browser). Through the Ubuntu software manager, I got Chromium and installed it. It looks like Google Chrome. Is it the same as Google Chrome?

thanks...

it is

No, chrome and chrome are different products.

  • Chromium is a completely open source browser based on Google code (like many others, we shouldn't ignore the fact that the engine is based on KHTML/Webkit)

  • Chrome embodies most of Chromium's features, but adds proprietary code (Flash player, licensed codecs, etc.).
