Chrome Extension or Chrome Web Store?

Here is the story about Google, sometime i feel quite frustrated to the term of their new services, which always lead me to wonder what is the different in between this and that. Well, no doubt they providing us the free service! My opinion about Google is in order to continue expand their business, they have to impact our life, and change the way of how people live, work...

Similar to Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook named as Time's person of 2010, because it changed the way of 500 millions of people live.


Chrome Extension
"Extensions are extra features and functionality that you can easily add to Google Chrome. By using extensions, you can customize Google Chrome with features you like, while keeping your browser free of things that you don't use."




Chrome Web Store
The Chrome Web Store is a online marketplace where you can find a wide range of extensions, themes, and apps designed for the Google Chrome browser. By displaying each item on its own details page where you can read reviews and leave ratings, the store makes it easier for you to explore and try out apps.




To me, both looks quite alike in term of search result and feature. The only different part is Chrome Extension contains all the free extensions whereas Chrome Web Store is provide a platform which similar to Apple's AppStore that allows user to download free/paid extensions.
