So, has anybody been using this new browser from Google?

Google Chrome

It looks good but I've heard it's pretty slow, especially with flash-content on a page. Is it worth installing?

i think its pretty fast although there is a problem with flash plugin. it just doesn't load the flash content.. pretty sure they will fix it soon.

I installed chrome and test it at today then I post.

I love it because history and, spelling website name, search. Video and Flash are doing work.

I typing getpaidforum into top web address box of Google Chrome that reason I want to test that.

Wow, Chrome browser was loading faster and running smooth better than mozilla firefox and Explorer Internet.




I heared Google Chrome from yahoo alert email this Monday. Subject: Daily News Digest: Technology News

I tried it for all of 30 mins and didn't like it at all.
Wasn't any faster than FF and the forementioned problem with flash is a pain.

Dear Joem, I have no problem of installing google chrome.

I use Window XP home sp 3

Maybe your window is different. You can check http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/default.aspx
Your computer is older what get slower than my computer is one year old. It is faster.

Maybe you need uninstalling old flash verison then re-installing. http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/do...=ShockwaveFlash

I tested it on my new TOSHIBA laptop which is 3 months old. The flash is the version that was around then as I removed Vista and installed XP Pro.

Anyway I'll give there browser a miss. The only google products I have is the g-mail notifier and google earth and I have quite enuff with those two.

also another problem when clicking ptp.. some ptp sites still doesn't recognize the browser and refuse to open the page also most ptr/sites are recognized as malicious sites in Google chrome

Do not use surf sites and other paid programs in google chrome.

I was big surprised this

Yes lynn,

Chrome is totally new way of looking at browser. Firefox still rules. But, Chrome will remove all the basic icons, url address box that is so common in IE. I'm sure Chrome made for one purpose, kill the Internet Explorer. It gaining more users now. It stands at above 10% of Internet users are using Chrome. This is just a few days after launching. I think it will even overtake Firefox.

I'm stil testing it. I like the speed and some feauters, but for now I will keep on using Opera. Since I first tried it has never let me down.

I tried it and quite like the speed, but for now I'm staying with Firefox 3 mainly because Chrome doesn't support Roboform (or Roboform doesn't support Chrome ). Other than that I predict it will become a major player in Web Browsers industry.

Maxthon - still my favorite IE compatible browser

FF is still the best out there.
