Google Chrome, it’s the new web browser in town. I’ve been using it for almost 2 days already and here are some of my observations:
What I like:
- It loads website faster than IE and Firefox.
- It has a wider screen for your webpages.
- I like their most visited sites tab.
- You can drag a tab and make it a separate window.
- You can put back a separate window to a tab.
- The address bar is also a search box.
- The incognito mode rocks!
- Its icon looks like a Pokemon ball.
What I hate:
- I can’t add the Google toolbar.
- I can’t add add-ons like Firefox.
The question. Did Google count how many Google Chrome downloads was made in the first 24 hours? They advertise it on Google’s homepage, on their Adsense blog and other Google services they have. I wouldn’t be surprised if they beat Firefox’s world record.
And now for the Google Chrome easter egg, simply type about:internets on the address bar and see what happens!

I’ve been using Chrome for several days too. So far, I love it. I love how it has so much space for the actual web content. It feels so light. I’m sure it has bugs that may hinder my productivity but as of now it is officially my favorite browser (sorry FF).

I’ve also downloaded Google Chrome and I think mas ok to kaysa Firefox, although hindi tayo makapag- add ng adds on, it helps naman para bumilis ang pagloload ng page.
Anyway Sir Marhgil, gusto site mo, dami ko nakukuhang tips and inputs.

Perfect na sana ang Chrome. Kulang na lang plug-in similar to Firebug sa Firefox. At ok yung incognito mode. Di na halata ang pagbabrowse ng mga pronsayts hihihihi.

I’ve been using Google Chrome for several days. I find it user friendly. It loads pages a lot faster compared with IE and Firefox. However, I experienced tab crashing sometimes. But I am not expecting much yet coz it’s still a Beta version.

Apart, from the refreshing lay out. Goggle Chrome lets you separate a tab from the browser and load faster. Try it out so you know. Check this site and find helpful review about Google Chrome http://www.googlechromereview.com

I am using Google Chrome when I need to browse faster. But for me Firefox is still my number one browser to update my websites.
