I see that some more vulnerabilities in Chrome have been published over the weekend, some look quite funky too :D

I know I keep posting links on this thread, but here's another..

Making Firefox look like Chrome :D

re: Google Launches Internet Browser - Chrome
 

Aww man I do like that :)

re: Google Launches Internet Browser - Chrome
 

I kinda liked it too - I liked the look of Chrome but didn't trust it enough to install it :)

Almost get the best of both worlds this way.

I've stopped using it for the time being. It had a dislike for Java and Flash.

re: Google Launches Internet Browser - Chrome
 

A few problems with it I've discovered from usage.

• The right click features have problems
• It tends to auto-fill your username/password into places it shouldn't be doing.
• Some java is corrupting (simple things like the SAVE button being shown as VOTE NOW when editing posts in here.
• Crashed it on the video pages of the bbc news site quite often

Nice idea, although one of the nicest things about Chrome is that it puts the tabs at the top ... which this skin doesn't (apparently can't) do.

Plus, I didn't know about the Robots easter egg in Firefox until I saw those screenshots. :D

Google will be committing a lot of what they did in Crome back into WebKit, Basically if you use Safari on OSX or iPhone you may see some Crome freatures implemented eventually.

I use wwitv.com a lot (not a typo!) and I find that Chrome has so far been the best browser for watching live tv in this capacity. The vido player launches seamlessly at the top left (default) and any windows that pop up (usually ones related to the channel I'm watching) are closed without any disruption to my viewing. As for the bbc iPlayer - again, it's just about the best browser for that purpose as it's just proved to be the slickest thing out there for that kind of thing....
Everything else about Chrome - no java support and any wep pages I scroll down, I can't scroll back up.... plus, I don't like the lack of options available either. But... it is still a test model and on the whole, I do like it a teensy-weensy bit.
If Chrome was more geared towards streamed media content and made that its main goal and if the next release they could tweak a few things and make it even faster, then I'd say that this browser could end up being my second choice browser after IE...
(Firefox is first and will always be my prefered browser of choice..!)
:D

and now you can have your tabs on top:

Haven't tested this addon so proceed with caution...

re: Google Launches Internet Browser - Chrome
 

It won't minimize.

It uses up the whole screen.

I can't see my start menu bar thingy.

I'll get a screenshot.

I've left my 2nd monitor part attached to show I haven't cut it.

It looks like Google Chrome will eventually support add-ons just like Firefox.

Anyone here who likes Chrome but not the privacy intrusion and updater.exe problems, will like this:

Developers have created Iron. Takes the Chrome source code but they stripped out all the privacy-sensitive code.

Just downloaded this to try, and my god, how fast is Chrome. Web Pages appear instantly, downloads are faster. I'm making this my default browser. :D
