Are Google Chrome Adverts Missing the Point?

Google have just released a couple of new cool adverts to promote Google chrome. However I think Google may be marketing this to the wrong people. The first video that you can see at the foot of this post emphasises on Google extensions. I have two small problems with this. 1) Google themselves know that most of the people that use the internet don’t even know what a browser is never mind what an extension is. They know this as they did the research themselves see the video below for more information.

2) Also if you are going to promote extensions there are far better extensions that they could of highlighted than the ones in the advert.

Don’t get me wrong I love Google Chrome and it’s my browser of choice and I think it lends its self best to the average user as it is very fast and simple.

The second advert highlights the translation function that Google Chrome has which I think is excellent. You can see both of the new adverts below. What do you think of the adverts? We would love to know your thoughts. Also do you know what a Google Chrome extension is?
