Observation

Google Microsoft's browser war

"The browser market is very competitive, but I believe people will still choose IE8 because it provides services to people anytime, anywhere ... Rather than some browser technology, people are controlled by the online processing of personal data. Microsoft's Microsoft IE Product General Manager Dian Hachamovich to Google's new move, the company seems to disagree.

Google started as a search engine, becoming the absolute giant of the Internet search engine market. At present, 2/3 of search requests on the internet are done by Google search engine.

But Google is ambitious and unwilling to dominate the search engine sector. In recent years, Google has been introducing new Internet products, such as image search, Google Maps, Gmail emails, photo management software and so on.

The presence of Google has made Microsoft very uneasy. Google search engine as the main card, Google's development speed is called the legend of the Internet industry. Google's threats to Microsoft are in many ways, such as Google's launch of "file" products, where people can build, write, store and share documents and spreadsheets online. In the past, people used Microsoft's Office programs, such as word, to work on a local computer. Office products are Microsoft's many years of cash cow.

Browsers are at the heart of the internet world, so there is an unusually fierce scramble for market share in browsers. Analysts say Google Chrome is expected to win 20% of its market share in the next two years. This is not the smoke of the browser war has just begun.
