Anyone checked out google Chrome yet?
I downloaded it yesterday, and tried it for a bit, but I don't see what's so good about it.
I kind of like the look of it more than firefox. Doesn't seem to be any better/worse however.
Another browser? OMG! Most people don't even know that something else exist beside IE...
I never knew Chrome existed. Im surprised google didn't direct their support toward firefox...
ill be sure to give it a try then I get back home. I read the browser is capable od multi threading.
Looks ok, I haven't actually used it but one of the guys here showed it to me. I didn't immediately see a reason to jump from FF3 to it though.
Ok i installed it today first thoughts are : very very fast i believe faster than all other i've tried, if a tab crashes all other tabs work as nothing happened very fast javascript and nice simple looking environment. On the other hand i really really dislike the bookmarking although you can import your bookmarks from other browsers i found it extremely difficult to make new bookmarks.
Today John and I installed it on my laptop during breakfast. I like the idea of multi threading and I also love the look, but a few key disadvantages will keep me with FireFox for years to come.
1. Each chrome process is about 13MB in size, so if you have a lot of tabs and little ram, you will run into problems with slowness. I usually run 20 tabs at a time
2. Adblock isn't integrated in like Firefox's adblock plus extension. Without that extension, surfing most forums (even codecall) is a pain! I hate pop up ads and refuse to let them through more than once for the life of my browser install.
Not yet tried, thinking to install it..
Downloading it now, I'll give it a try and see what I think....
