The word "chrome" refers to the graphical user interface of a program. See this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_interface_chrome#User_Interface_and_Interaction_Design Google just named their browser the same way for some reason, apparently causing confusion for you. @Firefoxvschrome and @Jane:

Mostly being about to click the 'new tab' and have the default page of most visited sites. That's very handy. Unfortunately there are too many things that aren't quite ready yet in Chrome (like not being about to turn off the question about reloading forms when returning to a previous page and not being able to select text on some pages etc. etc.) Is there a way to get that cool 'most visited' page on Firefox? Love your blog. I love a couple of things about Chrome. Mostly being about to click the ‘new tab’ and have the default page of most visited sites. That’s very handy.

This is also how Flock has the faves manager. I wonder could this be expanded to open an RSS reader. Nice find. This is also how Flock has the faves manager.
