Title: Google Chrome
Post by: Roslyn on September 05, 2008, 05:27:53 PM
Anyone else using Google Chrome? I just downloaded it, and I really like the simple interface. You can have your most used favourites (bookmarks) across the top. It's a BETA release but worth a look.

Heard about it.  Saw the link online.  Been too lazy--or atleast sufficiently statisfied--to mess with it.  Any pop-up/banner ad blockage?

haven't had that much of a look at it. Just tried to use it to get here though and it said it couldn't find the webpage. Needs more work maybe.

No linux version available yet.. I usually run firefox, but for the past few weeks ive been using opera at home and work. While each browser renders content slightly different, it all comes down to what works for you.

no mac/bsd client either, so i'll be waiting a while, if ever.

i refuse to use lesser OS's like anything microsoft makes. :)

There's a link to download it from Google.com, but I haven't ventured into any of the links.  I don't mind IE that much for as much as I use it.
