When I knew that Google do not have plans to add its popular Google Tool Bar to Chrome, I had a doubt that they are going to add most of it’s features in to Google Chrome by default, or “Built in”.

Recently, I got another sign of it, when I found ” Translation Bar” in the latest dev build that I am using ( yep,  I am using the developer version, to bring you the latest to you chrome news  Google Chrome To Add Translation Bar   Built in Translation ).  When you open a website, in a language other than your default language, the translation bar will popup on the top, suggesting you to view the translated version of the page.

I also had no idea why this is so. But when I was uninstalling Google Toolbar from firefox, I kinda figured out why it is not there on Chrome yet.

Fact that we all know : We love the simple layout of Google Chrome for many reasons, and the most important reason : It gives more screen space. Google Chrome is designed to give you a better browsing experience, as far as space is concerned, and they have done this very well, and that does not come very easily … I am sure they have worked very hard on this.

general  This is Why Google Chrome Does not Support Google Toolbar

Toolbar Chrome

If you have noticed, when Extensions are enabled, Google Chrome will not let them take more space from your screen area, that’s how they are making the extensions work too.

All this hard work, and they add Google Tool Bar to Chrome … then it will look a MESS !!

because it consumes so much from the screenspace… correct people ? Well, that should be the reason for Chrome still being away from Google Toolbar.

What Makes Me Think This Way

When you uninstall Google Toolbar on Firefox, you are supposed to tell them why you are doing that,  a feedback . And one among the most common reasons listed for you to select from is, ” It’s Taking My Screen Space” ( or something similar ? ). So, I would say, Google have enough feedback from toolbar users ( who uninstalled it ?  ) stating that they don’t want the google toolbar to take up more space.

So, in the current format, it’s not wise to add Google Toolbar to Chrome … what you think ?
