Cool Google Chrome Application
November 23, 2008, Posted by Sundar at 9:49 PM
Hey guys I found a new tool in google chrome, its awsome. It makes a website into an application which you can place it on desktop, startmenu and quick launch bar, it makes it easier to view websites instantly, and you dont want to type the URL in the address bar, isnt it cool. Follow the steps so you can turn a webpage into an application. (For example i am gonna make sundareswaran.com into an application.)
Step 1 :
- You must click on the “Control the current page” option.
Step 2 :
- Then you must select “Create application shortcuts” option.
Step 3 :
- Then you can select where your going to place the application.
Step 4 :
- And then you must click “OK” button.
Step 5 :
- Walla, its in the desktop now.
Useful for websites like :

my breath is held for the future work that rivals Shakespeare’s.
I knew that…But I forgot it. Thanks for reminding!
One more tip: you can “drag” tabs outside of the main window and they will be created as new windows. Each tab is a separate process anyway – a separate program. So if one crashes it’s only that one and not the whole browser.
