Google
is planning to stop Chrome Frame For Internet Explorer and cease
updates and support from January 2014. Chrome Frame was launched in 2009
by Google to help businesses to move to a modern framework without
having to change from the Internet Explorer. Google Frame allows
developers to set tags that automatically prompt Internet Explorer to Google Chrome Frame or of they do not sport Chrome Frame it directs them to their Installation Page.
Google stated, “Today, most people are
using modern browsers that support the majority of the latest web
technologies.” “Better yet, the usage of legacy browsers is declining
significantly and newer browsers stay up to date automatically, which
means the leading edge has become mainstream.”
Google elaborated that it is retiring
its Chrome Frame Plug In as users for legacy browsers like Internet
Explorer 6 and 7 have declined considerably and people are now using
modern browsers instead. Google is recommending businesses using Google
Frame to switch to either modern browsers or Chrome for Business that
now.
Roger Capriotti, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer director, said that,
"More and more people are using modern browsers every day. To help move
the web forward, we continue to upgrade our Windows customers through
Windows Update to ensure they have the latest version of IE for their
PC. We also encourage developers to build modern HTML5 sites that are
interoperable and help move the web forward."
