Google Chrome - calypso - 02-09-2008 11:00 PM

I love fresh ideas from people who think out the box. This is just beta but seems like it could really take the fight to the big guns.
If you dont know what i am talking about click here Google Chrome and try out their new Internet Browser for yourself.

Yep - downloaded and working (browsing and posting this reply using it).

I am currently running IE8, Firefox 3 and Google Chrome. Makes for some interesting comparisons. Kinda like trying different waxes side by side Bluebiggrin.

Nice find Calypso, will give it a try Wink

Mmm...looks interesting. Bluebiggrin I must say, I'm not an IE fan at all...Used FF for a good couple years now. Will give Chrome a go at home. Bluebiggrin

I have not tired IE8 yet, dont like Microsoft's Beta's. I think once Chrome is finished it could be great.


RE: Google Chrome - Carn - 03-09-2008 02:06 PM

Gonna take alot to beat FF thats for sure...Time will tell but looks good so far Wink

Yeah FF3 will take some beating but its still very possible. This has to be the most exciting time for web browser development with it being at its most competitive.

I ran away from IE6 a while ago to Opera. From then I moved to Firefox which remains my default browser. I've heard Opera has upped its game. Now Google Chrome looks very promising. Cool ideas indeed and good performance. Only a beta so will wait for full release versions to compare all properly. Also will be wanting to try IE8 after an article I read on IOLTechnology today.

Google is a terrific company with brilliant ideas so I'm expecting good things from Chrome in the future. That said, with all these releases I can just imagine the Firefox guys working hard and taking their development up a notch. Time will tell which browser becomes my default Bluebiggrin
