Google Chrome is brilliantly awesome. I like it more than Mozilla.

I downloaded it. I'm trying to use it. It is working for basic sights, but IAB and Myspace aren't working. I like the interface, but if websites don't work then it isn't quite usable.

guys that want a history dump, you should read that comic relaxenjoy posted (page 22). You can make an "incognito" window where nothing you do is stored on your computer. And the cookies get wiped when it is closed.

Google's gonna have it's own Operating System soon enough. I'm gonna use firefox though for now, I'm gonna wait until they update Chrome more, cause I don't wanna waste my time with it.

yeah using chrome now... Why did they only mention microsofts explorer? More people use firefox than microsofts. at least people I know anyways :P

I'm liking chrome. But missing my adblock and artblock plugins for firefox. But I'm sure it wont be long until they arrive on chrome!

"Every time I see someone using IE I feel bad for them. I want to explain the way things are, but know they will probably never understand. Also, Tacos4Brkfst obviously works for Google."

Sorry, Google works for me =p (Thanks adsense, and silly users that click on ad's that are 'blocked' haha.)

Roduku put it best,
"I've been a Firefox user for some time, now, and I keep IE around for sites that aren't compatible with Firefox "

Internet explorer simply works.

I have a very firm understanding of 'how things are', working compute repair well before Firefox was popular.

Im sorry you need to run firefox to keep your computer virus free.

I've been a Firefox user for some time, now, and I keep IE around for sites that aren't compatible with Firefox (though that has become more rare). I downloaded Chrome as soon as it was available. It's actually pretty good for a first attempt. Shows that Google put some thought into it.
What impressed me most was that it transferred not only my bookmarks from FF and IE, but also my current browser history and my password info.
A few other interesting features:
You can drag a tab from the current window and drop it to create a new window, then drag and drop tabs from one to the other.
There is an option to create an application from a tab, which puts a shortcut on the desktop. When you open the shortcut, the page opens minus the toolbars( address, bookmarks, etc).

There's a task manager that allows you to kill a single tab and/or kill Flash animations.
As for porn surfing, you can open a tab in "incognito" mode and no information at all is saved. When the tab is closed, everything associated with it goes.
I'd rate it an 8 out of 10 because of the lack of available extensions. No I'm sure there will be user created extensions, eventually.

I wanna get it, I like safari but it does shut itself down if one tab closes...

I liked mozilla but it broke, and IE sux.

As soon as it has an Ad blocker like Ad-block plus in FF (not just pop-up blocker, blocks flash advertisement banners as well, even when they're embedded in videos.), I will download it.
