Default Google Chrome - A New Web Browser

Google Chrome is out...
http://google.com/chrome

I've tried it and it's interesting. It's still a beta, so Firefox and Explorer have more features than Chrome. Yet, Chrome is FAST and simple. Is that a good thing? What do you think of Chrome?

Me, I like it. I wouldn't make it my default browser, but I think Google has the right idea.
It's a good start, but it needs a lot of work.

Not to bad, I have to say I kinda like firefox and opera best, but their on the right track. Not a big fan of google, I'm more of a microsoft guy, but their going good, not so bad.

Reading about it from google it sounds pretty good. But I've seen a lot of small bugs with it. Some sites it crawls :\

But if it does all they say it does this could be the next big jump in browser tech. While IE holds 74% of the browser market M$ hasn't done KITTENS to help anything along. They just make the next generation bigger, more blotted, and full of security risks (thanks m$ your great *rolls eyes*)

One of my favorite things about Google Chrome is the hidden sense of humor.

Try typing certain "about" commands in the address bar...
  • about:internets
  • about:crash
  • about:Plugins
I'm also impressed at how quickly Google Chrome is catching on. Here's a list of the top five web browsers used last week at Photics.com
  • Internet Explorer 45.54%
  • Firefox 43.75%
  • Opera 3.04%
  • Safari 3.04%
  • Chrome 2.14%
