Google chrome for mac was released a couple months ago, but was lacking what the windows users had. The extensions for extra experience. Now the new version of Google chrome beta for mac has extensions and more features. The new beta release of Chrome for Mac offers bookmark sync, extensions and more. And this is for the public version, not just the developer version of the chrome for mac.

You can now choose to use from around 2,200 extensions available for Google chrome, and these extensions can help you gain more information, fun, and user user-experience with functionality of the browser. Although we can’t say how much load that would increase, as when compared to firefox, Chrome has been very light in Mac OS X.

SEO: Easy way to get 10 high quality bcacklinks to your blog

April 25th, 2010 by ytechcity

I discovered a cool way to get some really good backlinks to your website a short while back when I was checking out some websites that would give you an estimate on how much your website is worth.

I’d like to point out that these website do not provide a very good estimate of your websites value, only you know how much your website is really worth.

However, they do provide a good quality backlink to your website, because as you enter your website domain name for the valuation or traffic statistic and are provided with the result the website displays this information in a manner that Google and the other search engines can see.

And voila! a new backlink is born..

Here’s how you do it.

Visit each website in turn and simply enter the information requested normally they will just ask for your websites domain name but sometimes an email address is also required.

The websites

1) http://www.websiteoutlook.com

2) http://www.statbrain.com

3) http://www.builtwith.com

4) http://snapshot.compete.com

5) http://www.aboutus.org

6) http://www.quantcast.com

7) http://www.cubestat.com

8 ) http://whois.tools4noobs.com

9) http://www.alexa.com/search?
