It was about a year ago when Speed Racer appeared in cinemas. Mr. Speed Racer and his cool car tumbling over some baddie. Lots of cheating. Cool gadgets…
Back to the point…It gives me great pleasure to present to you a TechXav production… Speed Racer 2: Battle of the Web Browsers!
” Hello and welcome to the PC circuit! My name is Alex L. and I will be commentating on today’s race. In front of me is the Windows Taskbar where the three challengers await the starter’s whistle.
To the far right is our most seasoned competitor, Firefox. He will be driving the Firefox 3.5. Next to him is Apple who will be at the helm of his Safari4. Last but not least we have the newbie, Google who will be steering his Google Chrome2. Microsoft with his Internet Explorer was eliminated in the qualifying round.
The competitors will have to pass through three rounds. The first round is the qualifying round in which the browsers will be required to open Facebook. The second round will see one Browser eliminated if he is slowest in opening Yahoo. The third round, where the contestants will be tasked to open TechXav, will reveal our winner. All competitors will start from the Google homepage. I give to you the Battle of the Browsers!
Take your marks… Go! Off they go for the qualifying round! Its Safari in 2 seconds  35 milliseconds, Google Chrome in 1 second 48 milliseconds and Firefox in 2 seconds 86 milliseconds.
Now we get down to business. Round 2 begins now… Go! Safari: 4 seconds 96 milliseconds. Chrome: 4 seconds 39 milliseconds. Firefox: 4 seconds… 20 milliseconds. Steve Jobs sulks away.
Round 3. The deciding round. Â Ready… Set… Go! Chrome takes off leading but Firefox is quick to catch up. Ooh… neck and neck… and there! Past the finish line! The results are appearing… Chrome: 26 seconds 17 milliseconds. Firefox: 26 seconds 31 milliseconds. And Chrome wins by 14 milliseconds!!!
Its been a fantastic day with a fantastic competition but even though Chrome emerged the winner… They all still rock the WWW!!!
