Another thing I did notice today is that this browser isn't really playing nice with Flash-intensive sites. It doesn't crash the browser for me but, oh lawdy does it run slow on my old Pentium machines. Most amazing jew boots |
Also some guy wrote a post about the communication Chrome does with Google. Executive summary:
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |

"It does query for search completions" <- then it has to send data about the typed in URL to the server. What's the difference?
Another vulnerability: EvilFingers - Google Chrome Browser 0.2.149.27 in chrome.dll I was speaking idiomatically. |
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
Not have extension / plugin support in a browser pretty much kills its usability.
I don't really see the memory footprint as an advantage because it can't do half of the cool shit I'm getting Firefox to do with various extensions and then of course there is the whole who-fucking-cares-if-my-browser-is-using-150megs-of-my-3GB-of-RAM-by-offering-actual-functionality-and-living-in-an-age-of-OSes-that-having-something-call-memory-managers-and-schedulers-making-this-memory-usage-paranoia-retarded. Unused RAM is pointless. When the fuck will people ever realize this. Also caching is awesome. We need bigger caches and large memory footprints. It makes shit go faster. FELIPE NO

FUCK, THIS BETA SOFTWARE IS USELESS, IT'S NOT EVEN FINISHED YET
What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Even if they add extension support later a library of extensions does not magically appear along with it. It took Firefox ten years to build its current library. Also software in its beta stage usually has its full feature set. Just saying....
Jam it back in, in the dark.

A month later, how many of you are still using Chrome? I've been willing to overlook the bugs (shaky Youtube support, some issues with Acrobat) in exchange for a fast, minimalist browser, and use Chrome for almost all my browsing at home and work.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |

From what I've heard it seems as though Google just ripped all of the good features of every other browser and packaged it into one bug-filled app. After the coolness factor wears, few people will actually still use it, in my opinion. I use IE7 and Firefox together, and they both work great, no need to pick up a brand new app.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
From what you've heard? That means you haven't actually used it, therefore your opinion means jack shit.

I used it for a while until I found the "google update" service running in the background, and if I remember correctly there was something else that was silently installed. I'm back on FF3.03 for now.
