Has anyone began using Google's new web browser (currently in beta) called Chrome? I'd like to, but I generally stay away from beta software if I can help it.
Did anyone take the time to read through the "comic" (which served as an introduction to Chrome's features)? There are some very interesting ideas. I suggest you check it out. Please let me know what you think.

Re: Google Chrome
Googles idea of beta isn't a real world programming beta version. It's more like a well tested release candidate than anything else.

Re: Google Chrome
I searched the forum for "Chrome" but it didn't return anything. Maybe I was searching in a sub-form...

Re: Google Chrome
the only features i liked in chrome were the thing with all your most commonly visited pages on new tabs, and 'incognito mode' (aka pr0n mode ) and both of them have now been ported to firefox 3.0 via addons

Re: Google Chrome
When Firefox 2 came out I was done with them, I had nothing but problems. It would crash 90% of the time and within the first 10 minutes of having it open. So I went back to IE....well Chrome came out and so I have been using it since and I like it. A good alternative to IE and until I can bring myself to try firefox again it will stay this way.

Re: Google Chrome
So basically my browser is always on incognito mode? Aside from cookies (I clear those from time to time). I never understood what the point of history was.
