Firefox is nice, but Google's control over that browser is indirect. It can control Chrome, with the hope that (at best) it will compete/replace Firefox, or (at worst) be integrated within Firefox's code trunk. Either option is acceptable. To put it in business-model terms: selling adds requires a product and/or service (gmail, google docs, google reader, etc.). Selling a (free) product/service requires standards compliance. And, of course, if it has to be done right, do it yourself.

In fact, it seems like they feel the urge to do everything that Apple and Microsoft does. I'm tired of it really. I wish they would just keep working with organizing the world's information in order to put ads on it.
