It actually seems faster than firefox or opera, but I'm a diehard firefox fan so I'll be sticking with that.

Yeah it does load faster for me too, uses way less resources than FF3 too. I'm not sure about the bookmark thing, since I keep all mine on the toolbar for one click away.

^ Read all this shit about them doing this to take on Microsoft. Then they go and basically pull a Microsoft.

I have been using the chrome browser a lot lately, and what I think I like most about the damn thing is the task manager. It shows the memory usage for each tab along with plug ins like shockwave and shit like that.
The browser is really fast too.

1. Click on the Wrench
2. Select "Always show bookmarks bar"
3. Now you will see a new bar and folder called "other bookmarks"




As for the browser itself? I dont' think it's all they claimed it to be. I already uninstalled it

I like the how the tabs are separate processes - so they don't share the same resources, making it more secure than other tabbed browsers (although, Chrome has a few security flaws that need to be ironed out ATM, like using the latest version of WebKit).

I like it for what it is. Super fast, small footprint, better Acid3 score, very clean...and a good open-source project browser. If any of you checked out those interesting Chrome videos on YouTube, you'd see it's not really intended to displace Firefox, IE, Opera, or any browser. It's really for helping advance all browsers - like a project sandbox. They said very clearly "we want other browsers to take technology that works in Chrome" - after all, they still give Mozilla tens of millions of dollars every year.
