ABOUT THECHROMETHUG
When you've been using chrome os before it had android app support; you've gotta learn how to live with a browser. "Just" a browser? Maybe not :)
What's the point of this website?
To inform people, that chrome can do many things, because most people aren't aware of the browser's full potential. eg. Using Google's office-suite offline, editing photos and videos without downloading any third party software, using android apps on chrome, etc. I will display and review many PC software alternatives from the web apps.
My Story
One day, my class was told to design a picture. People were using Adobe Photoshop. I wasn't good at using photoshop, so I went to the chrome web store and searched for "Photo editor." It was then that I found out about Pixlr. I was amazed on how a web app could do pretty much what Photoshop could. What I was more amazed was that, I never noticed the chrome web store! That icon's been sitting in chrome for years, but I've never seen a single person use it before. At the same day, I explored the web store and met a variety of software: The best part is that they get installed really fast and that, web apps are usually free (I haven't seen a web app that can be bought, although apps can have in-app purchases.) Web apps are capable of replacing actual software, especially as alternatives. And that's about it.
