Hi, anyone else playing with this? I notice VDr opens faster then with Opera, local ABC news was instant, BBC site slower then Opera. Takes a bit of getting used to the settings, appears to have NO main menu (least what I can find) Imports only IE favorites (no problem export Opera to IE then import ) This is of course Beta still if speed is your thing this appears fast. Second opening of BBC was quick turned off DNS prefetching in "under the Hood". Lets know what you think.
I installed it today, and I played with it for a moment.
Nice, fast, but it has a long way to go...Beta, though...
I'll wait a bit. I love Firefox, so I doubt I'll switch anyway...
i just did downloaded google chome .it working really good .fast .but i have one thing that do not work .the minimize and close botton dont work .the botton on right top corner .do you know a way to get them to work .i know that google chome is new but maybe some one know how to do it .
thank you .

Not only is it new - it's BETA software...Beta software is software that is still being built and is known to have issues. You should never install Beta software on a mission critical machine.
Also keeo in mind, it just came out yesterday and not too many people have it...So keep clicking away and see if you can find the answer yourself.
thank you .yes i know that it came out yesterday .it is faster then my firefox 20011 but it is all there .bookmark etc etc .now i know how to minimize it but not with the minimize botton .well i do have lot of spare time so it is good to try new stuff .but there is no tool bar .no view botton .it is there but it is up in the control the current page just below the minimize botton
As you found out, it is really not ready for prime time.
Keep clicking and checking things out. And it is a good possibility you will end up the most knowledgable person on it.
well i was just reading what people were saying about it .they all say that they don't all bookmark they save well i have all mine and i even created a toolbar with the same site that i had with fire fox
[accuweather.virtual dr.etc etc .then at the end of the bar i have 2 arrows then there is a writing saying [other bookmark] so i have every thing with chrome that i have with fire fox .but no google tool bar .this really bad .and i still did figure out how to get the minimize and close down botton to work .ah well it is way faster any way .good pass time for me .
The Register is covering Chrome, some good links at http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/09/03/chrome_roundup/

Of course, everything isnt perfect about Google Chrome. Their EULA is a nasty one. It says that anything I write though the Google browser (such as this article) becomes the property of Google.
I won't be using the google browser any time soon.Quote:

I installed it last night, just to see what's going on, but as soon, as I found out about privacy issues, got rid of it.
so what you are saying is not to use it ever .is it only google that what ever you say become property of google .no other browser.?????
thank you
As far, as I'm aware, that only in Google's browser policy.
To me, it's totally un-acceptable.
but if you are not doing any thing wrong what cant they do nothing .noQuote:

I don't think anyone would want Google to store or even be aware of that data legal or not.
thank you fink .now what if i keep it but not using it till they change some thing about that .or just uninstall it .what do you thing .to bad it was fast .i was getting use to it .not only that when you want a look at a close up look at a picture it is full screnn all the time.
If you want advice....uninstall.
Hi, we have two threads here on the same subject maybe they should be merged. Google have pulled the offending section (11) would not have stood up since much of what might be published would not be an individuals right to ownership anyway (ie Uni assignment sent to online UNI using chrome is the intellectual property of the UNI not the student)
Good idea...Quote:

I don't see any benefit in it.,, I down loaded and installed the program two days ago,, and it put a nice little short cut on my left task bar., which to me means it is Not constantly running as it does in the right task bar next to clock..
I opened the icon and it showed me the last web site I was at and it had a history of past sites located in a link on the same page.. and it also had a record of my favourite links stored on the right side.. My Google toolbar has all of this as well. So yesterday I returned to Google chrome.., same images same sights.. Today opened up chrome again and it still shows the same information as two days.. I surf the net daily to as much as 1 or 2 dozen sites daily.. Where are these? How does Google chrome work? are you to open and then shrink down to bar and continue working with Google? Privacy issues don't bother me, as I have no place I visit that I would be ashamed of or worried about...

I think I'll pass on the Chrome browser.

hey. i'm admin to a game based of site. i try google chrome and
I saw that game as it detects this browser: SAFARI. i know as safari is a product of apple. more google chrome hide informations for me :D. I is blocked to access history
use google chrome and when I had 3 Chrome windows open, each with multiple tabs. One of the tabs locked up and crashed, and it took down all 3 browser windows along with the tabs.
at least if Firefox 3 crashes it offers to reload all the pages you had opened previously. Chrome offered nothing after the crash.
