but it hasnt won me over JUST yet.
Yup. I just hope the incognito mode WORKS
Google's take on the browser: http://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/index.html
It was easy to predict that the browser wouldn't succeed at first launch. Give it time, Google (obviously) has the money to continue fixing this up.
...this is ridiculous. A sad attempt to join in on the browser wars. From what I see, this browser offers no new features, just the same old same old ideas taken from other browsers.
Not to mention, looks pretty ugly...
Someone else just told me about this.
Pros:
+ Nice interface
+ Starts VERY fast
Cons:
+ Fairly slow
+ Poor download manager
+ No titlebar
+ Horrible installation
Then again this isn't even v1. I did a webwait.com test between ie8beta2, ff3, and gc, and ie8 won them all, while ff3 came next and gc was last. Maybe it will be better in the future.
What crapware gets installed with it??
knowing Google and its Toolbar/desktop search crapware i'd be very surprised if there is none.
A new process thread per tab has the advantage of not closing the whole browser if problems are encountered I suppose but from first impressions of other people I can't see myself rushing to install this.
