[Archive] Google chrome? Worth it?

Swissdictator:

Just wondering what people thought about Google chrome and if it is better than Firefox.

Lord Archaon:

I’d say they both are equal. Firefox has more add-ons available, but Chrome has a cool homepage with most popular websites you visit. Having two computors, (PC and a laptop) i have installed them both, Chrome on a laptop and Firefox on a PC. :slight_smile:

Willmark:

I like both… With that said FF is still my main browser. I prefer FF for the way it works across any platform. Another point in FFs favor is adblock plus.

furrie:

I use chrome as my main browser, but I have FF installed on both my desktop and laptop. The reason I use chrome is that it has only one line of controls, which for most part is adress bar. As for the add-ons chrome is still new and gets more and more add-ons. Chrome already has adblock, don’t know about the plus though

Thommy H:

Nothing is better than Firefox. Not just in terms of browsers: I mean generally. In the universe.

Mario:

There is one thing; Bacon. MMmmmh Bacon :smiley:

Bolg:

Chrome has more space for the actual web stuff, and I love the fact that if you open a new tab (it suggest the sites you visit most often.)

(I just recently switched from Fox to Chrome and I’m quite happy)

cornixt:

If you have the Google toolbar installed then you can set it to show the websites you visit when you open a new tab. I used to use it but I replaced it with an HTML page I wrote myself with the pages I like to open from tabs.

Fallen246:

I actually use IE, Chrome and Firefox.

Firefox for sites I use add-ons for, Chrome for sites I visit reguarly, and IE for everything else (or for banking, as “cookies” are disabled on my IE).

The only internet browser I will avoid forever is Safari.

Thommy H:

IE does that thing with websites you visit in a new tab. Pretty handy for someone like me, who uses it solely for viewing pornography.

Thorne:

Firefox is great IE sucks enougth said.

Fequiil:

Servius:

Personally I have had more problems with Firefox than IE or Chrome… I liked chrome’s concept but found that when I was using it, it just wouldnt get the job done… but this was a while back… I started using Minefield and its pretty good… Its cold boot is rather long… but once the process is loaded its lightning… I would recommend it even though its still in beta.

zobo1942:

I like Chrome - it seems to suffer from ‘browser lag’ far less often than IE.

Vexxus:

Google Chrome. Enough said.

Anonymouse:

What about Opera? Is it better than bacon?
