I think I might try Chrome out after December. Is it still in beta?

Really, Safari above Firefox? Huh. I'd have it the other way around.

I tried it when it first came out. I know there have been some updates since then but I didn't care much for it. Firefox is still vastly superior IMO and, for me, just as fast. The lack of extensions that I love in Firefox won't have be abandoning it any time soon. Plus, I know it's beta (alpha?) but it's too buggy for me. A big one was that my mouse scroll was reversed and also wouldn't go one page at a time.

The thing is, I prefer Safari's aesthetic. I suppose it comes down to personal preference. I currently use Firefox but like I said, might look into Chrome after some bugs have been fixed. Hopefully, it'll be soon.

Looks like AdBlock might be coming soon to Chrome. http://lifehacker.com/5100500/chrome...block-imminent

Seeing as how Gmail is still "beta," I don't think Chrome's release is going to get any more official, beyond periodic updates and such.

ya, I tested it out for the first time this week. I like it too. Not quite there yet, but has a lot of potential.

Same problem - deal breaker for me for the time being.

Ya I like that too, but don't have to extrapolate too far to see how that can go wrong. Browse a few NSFW or NSFgf sites suddenly take prominence when you start the computer with the boss and/or woman over your shoulder.

Similar look and concept - I prefer Fast Dial plugin for Firefox, where you pick your own sites as a homepage.

^ theres a cool option for this. go to options and "new incognito window". All your sites browsed there will be not logged. P0rn browser.
