Google bringing out own browser !!!

Starts nice and fast. Obviously, doesn't have any addons/extensions (yet?). I am missing my Adblocker from FF and I have a feeling Google doesn't have a big incentive to port one to Chrome :)

Also, Roboform doesn't work with it, againt not whining as this is no surprise. Flash is working fine and without flaws.

To me, this looks like a nice little tech demo so far. Now let's see where the community can take this thing. It looks like a sound technical foundation, after reading through their comic book.

Working fine here, but I only started using it today. It is fast.
 
I'm using it right now and really like it. I used to use Firefox, but I'm switching to Chrome :)

google.com/chrome
 
They're offering great products. But the point is that, most of them are in BETA version!!!!! It is understandable if the BETA will not stay too long that make people feel that it's acting like a full functional (official) release. Is it a strategy for Google to take on the defensive side, something like "Listen guys! You cannot blame us yet because it's just a BETA version". Or "Imagine how great will be when we have a full release". So users have a high expectation ahead. A great product will be coming, so I'm on the right track, I made a good choice...
 
Thanks.

What's the biggest difference/advantage between Chrome beta and Firefox 3.01?

I'd normally do my own research, but Chrome is so new that I thought I wouldn't find too much new info.
 
Downloaded it a few hours ago and am very impressed... Each tab/unique site gets its own process, so a resource hungry web page (like watching streaming video) doesn't seem to interfere or slow down the rest of your "user experience" as much as with other browsers.

My only complaint is that I think that a browser named "Chrome" should at least allow you to change the chrome.

It does a lot of the same stuff, but mainly Google seems to be treating Chrome more like an operating system than just an application.

There is a task manager (similar to when you press ctrl alt del in windows) that shows all your open tabs and how much memory, cpu, and network usage they are using.

Also if a single tab or plugin crashes, it has the ability to restart the plugin or close just that tab without crashing the entire browser.

There is also a porn mode that doesn't record history and other info.
