Google chrome is a web browser/. found it last night when i was searching random crap. seems pretty cool to me so far. just woundering if anyone else herd of it or uses it.
Yes, I am using it...it is actually pretty fast. I like it better than Firefox...it might take a while to get used to, but I really like it . It has so many more options...though they don't have good add-ons yet. Oh, and btw, I'm not using it right now because this is my school laptop...but I do have it on all my home computers. It is my main browser.
Thought about trying it but never got around to it.. I've read that it's faster than Firefox. Is this true?
yea i have downloaded it...but not using it so far, used it once, its pretty nice but lacks the addons..which is why im using firefox mainly
Chrome is nice, but the lack of Firefoxyness is quite frustrating. If you use ANYTHING now specific to the Firefox browser, switching will be disappointing.
actually i found it much slower if i have like 10 tabs up (which i do sometimes..) it starts to lag bad. where trusty ol mozilla will be humming along how the incognito mode is an.. *Ahem* nice touch
yes i do agree that the incognito mode is something different...to Tofurky: its when you set the browser so that it doesnt store any information when u go to sites so like it doesnt store your history, etc
I'm using Chrome just for the fact that my computer runs it a lot smoother than Firefox. Firefox crashes all the time for me, it takes like 200k memory, with all the add-ons and crap. I have 6 tabs open on Chrome (Big pages, not tiny text ones), and it's only using 45k memory. I believe it temporarily saves the page to your hard drive instead of RAM. When you change tabs, there's lag of about half a second where the page "loads" back up. Probably a pain in the ass if you're restocking, but I don't play neo any more due to IP ban
I stick with Firefox because to me, it's fast enough for my purpose, and I use Greasemonkey, but my sister switched to Chrome and it's pretty fast. The interface as far as being able to drag/drop tabs into/out of windows seems pretty cool and such, but since as of now it's been released so soon that there are very few programs compatible with it, I personally don't think I'm going to try using it until it's been further developed. (More add-ons, compatibility with programs, etc.)
Well, Google is still working on it so don't expect it to be perfect yet. I think it is pretty good right now so I'm happy with it I've found no problems with it whatsoever though...Hally, didn't see any of your problems *hmm*
Yeah, I was reluctant at first, but I love Chome, one little thing is the exit buttons and minimize buttons. I just like them better. Also incognito mode is a plus xD
Well, actually, I tried it on beta, but I didn't like it...then, I gave it another try, and now I <3 it. I was willing to take the "risk"...I suggest ya'll should, it's good
okay everyone here keeps on mentioning firefox addons like what? my ff is standard.. what are the good ones? any recommendations?
