Each month, over half a million people visit GTPlanet using Google’s Chrome browser, making it the most popular way to access the site. Now, it’s going to be easier than ever for Chrome users to stay on top of news from the “world of Gran Turismo” with GTPlanet’s new Chrome extension!
Available for free on the Chrome Web Store, the extension places a small icon in your browser’s window. When new content is posted to GTPlanet’s blog, you’ll receive a small notification in your browser, and the icon will display a small red badge indicating new content is available.
Clicking on the extension’s icon will show you all the latest stories, along with quick links to various areas of the site, including GTPlanet’s Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ pages.
If you aren’t yet using Google Chrome, you can download the browser for free, then click here to install GTPlanet’s extension. Chrome has been gaining popularity among Internet users over the last few years for its simple design and speedy performance. I personally use and highly recommend it.
All credit goes to GTPlanet user Chase (cbabb), who developed GTPlanet’s Chrome extension and kindly donated it to the community. To thank Chase or submit any feedback or bug reports about the extension, you can contact him here. Thanks again, Chase!

Really nice man! Hope it won’t disturb me playing GT2 in my PSX Emulator :)
downloading it now! ;) and Google did a good job with its browser! I do recommend it also, but dont forget about Firefox its also very good. And I will still support and use it as second browser! ;)
Über Wonderful nicely done old chap :)
Google is taking over the world.
Is there one that I could use for my PS Vita?
Nope. I highly doubt it at least.
:(
Keep up the good work updating the site, although I’m not a Google chrome user, those who do use it may find this very useful.
I’m not exactly sure why, but whenever I go to the Feedback section, the Banner, Tabs, and “GTPlanet” logo at the yop disappear and are replaced with blue-font links… I don’t know if it’s an issue with my computer or Safari… It’s only the Feedback tab, never on the “News”, “Forums”, or “Library” tabs.
Nice !!!
Thank you very much Chase !!! :-)
Wow, this is an awesome idea! Great work, Chase! Much appreciated.
…Maybe I should stop using Safari…
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES
:lol:
Back on-topic I’ll definitely download this. Great job.
Ok great, can I has moar DLC now *trollface*
haha Nice one.
This is great as I refuse to use Firefox or IE as I’ve had bad experiences. Well done yet again Jordan :cheers:
Don’t rule out Opera if you ever fancy a change. It’s my favourite browser these days :)
Ok is it time yet to unlock all cars in the game since its what u paid for initially.
Heh?
LOL this guy wants all the cars unlocking! Play the game then you tit!
I like it
Sweeeeeeeeet good news! good news!
Cool, I’ll go download it now!
So does this mean it’s going to be even harder for people to be “first”? If so, thats awesome.
Yes. That’s a plus for the people who like to be first to comment. I see it as you’re always the last person, no matter how many comments rack up.
Nice work guys…
…but as per tradition with the news topics I have to ask – wheres the DLC?
In Kazunori’s cellar!
Hmmm??? Enquiring minds would like
Nah! I’d rather pay frequent visits to my favorite site for my favorite game. Besides I’d rather keep my browser as lean as possible without much cramping it.
I like it, because I’m lazy and don’t go to the homepage too often. Thanks to ‘Chase’ & to ‘Jordan’ for this, makes life simpler.
I use Firefox, Is it worth downloading Chrome to try this?
Definately, I think google chrome is 10x better than firefox.
I use Firefox because of it’s incredible amount of add-ons
I switched over from Firefox a long time ago. I’m so glad I did.
The bad thing is deleting bookmarks by accident. I have to regularly (sometimes) Export my Bookmarks to keep from accidentally deleting a bookmark I need and not knowing what it was exactly.
Just about everything else SEEMS better to me on Chrome, even the Bookmark Manager, than on Firefox.
Downloaded and thank you very much!! Very useful! no need to check every 5 minutes about some topic of interest. ;)
That’s awesome, now make one for Firefox! :dopey:
:(
An extension for Firefox is planned. However, it requires a lot more time, work, & knowledge. I have to learn a few more things before I just jump in. Chrome has received all it’s popularity due to how simple it is.
This is actually pretty damn cool xD It works smoothly, personally I think it would be cool if it became more of a twitter like ticker that showed posts to threads you had subscribed to or something as well :P
Interesting idea. But this most likely won’t be included. I am aiming away from anything that requires a user to login within the extension.
already downloaded it thx for that gtplanet
I like this. Great work J
Yay!!!!
Brilliant! Thank you Chase. :)
Thank you, Chase!
Sweeet!
internet explorer not much better dr.frog
Explorer is the WORST! EVAR! STICK WITH IT.
: D
Yes!
Yes!!! This is awesome..
Firefox and Safari sucks.
I agree-switched from Firefox to Chrome…never going back :D.
But Explorer is by far the WORST web browser I’ve used.
so is chrome really the best?
I’ve noticed it’s faster than explorer but it’s horrible at blocking pop–ups. And yes I have it set to block all pop ups, some still get through. With IExplorer, I get no pop-ups at all. IE seems more secure overall but it’s slower and it started having trouble reading all those stupid “captcha” things, and that’s why I moved to chrome. Chrome also seems better with flash
Awesome!! Google Chrome rocks!
I wondered if after the app, an extension to a browser would show up. I guess i was right. It works fine on my end. Nice Job.
Hurray for Jordan for this fantastic extenstion. :)
i agree bout chrome being the best i used it since its launch and never looked back
cheers jordon :D
Absolutely brilliant application for the best Web browser out there. Google Chrome has been a blessing for me on many occasions. It is very efficient and user friendly. If your not using it. You should be.
jordon random question but how do you get all your info on GT5 ect ?
I watch GTPlanet’s forums and the rest of the Internet for relevant news. Readers also send in news tips.
Ohhhhhhhhh!!
This just means People will come to the site less don’t you think ?
It still brings us to the forums.
Probably not. If people love the site enough to install the extension for it, they won’t stop coming to visit the forums and the rest of the site.
I don’t know about that, since it’s still pulling in the news feed.
How DARE YOU! lol
:) (: :] [:
THis is quite neat
????? Those are some weird looking boobs man. Do it like this next time:
( . ) ( . )
:-)
Brilliant Extension. Just downloaded it! Love how it notifies you when there are new posts. :)
