Google Chrome

I wonder whether Google's Chrome browser should also be tested or whether it isn't widespread enough to warrant that. (I use it for some things, FWIW.)

I'm sure that in the future (not flying car future, but soonish) Google Chrome will be a solid contender in the Browser Wars. Testing it is probably a good idea. One issue that I think is important, however, is identifying which accessibility issues would be better addressed by the developer of new applications/technologies. I confess that I'm a bit of a neophyte in the world of Web Accessibility, but as a user with a disability I really think that Dreamwidth as a whole will be better off tackling only accessibility issues that are primarily cross-platform. Perhaps as the community grows, someone (or a group) could advocate for developers to make needed accessibility changes. This is a lofty goal, but I guess my simple suggestion is -- for now -- that the Dreamwidth community doesn't tackle issues that are quite obviously Someone Else's Problem. --Textish 02:38, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
