Is anyone using the new Google Chrome browser? Thoughts?
Edited on Sun Oct-12-08 08:42 AM by Blue-Jay
I'm sort of digging it, but it's still lacking in a few features that I like about Firefox.

There's no "master password" for security purposes. Editing the bookmarks is a pain, as is closes after each edit.

It *is* faster, however. That's pretty groovy.

EDIT: http://www.google.com/chrome/

1. I use it all the time
I really enjoy the highlight text/right click "search for" thing. And I like the address bar as the search bar. I like the "clean" look and feel. And it is MUCH faster than IE or FF.

I now use all 3 browsers regularly. I use Chrome for my browsing, IE for work (I need ActiveX), and FF for this other thing I do that requires a FF add-on.

2. Waiting for the Mac version to come out.
I like what I've heard about it so far, although I will likely continue to use FireFox and IE for some things.
