If you are a web developer or a web publisher, or anyone who has to work with posting a lot of images online, you might be aware of how important it is to compress your images for it load fast on the web.<\/p>\n
There are a lot of tools (both online and offline<\/em>) available to compress images of any format. Even we have discussed this quite a lot of time on our blog as well.<\/p>\n Google has introduced a new web tool called Squoosh.app which can dramatically compress any image within a few seconds and the best part is that it works offline.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Squoosh.app is available as a web app but you do not have to upload images, which makes it a great web app for compressing images for Chrome OS where we don’t have really have a good tool for this purpose.<\/p>\n Apart from compressing images that will also give you the option to resize them.<\/p>\n As a Chrome user, I have been using a chrome extension called Image Editor, and I really hate its user interface, though it is available as a web app I will still continue to use the application but I am also using Google’s new web tool.<\/p>\n The UI of Squooshs app is quite simple, you have the ability to drag and drop images or select images my browsing it on your PC.<\/p>\n
