... or called something similar to Chrome.

Anyone using it and if so is it worth getting.

Am currently on Firefox having given up on IE and found Safari too slow...

  • I'd stick with firefox for the moment, theres a number of security issues they're trying to iron out, one of which is it'll keep secure pages in it's history by default unless you ask it not to.

    Useful if you want everyone who uses your comp to see your online banking etc

    Well it is noticably faster on some sites compared to Firefox and IE, but it's lacking a few features I deem essential. There's no support for RSS feeds and you can't block ads. Can't see it ever getting an adblocker what with google's entire revenue coming from advertising.

    it will be useful for programmers from what I've seen as it allows you to dump the html to screen very easily

  • It's only in Beta so feature poor at the moment, but I like it so far. Interested to see how it develops.
  • I like it. But I still prefer firefox.

    It has some interesting features, i thought it was quick, but not noticebly faster than firefox (IE on the other hand...).

    It's now my "2nd" browser, which i often use so i can be signed into two different accounts (non banking with the BETA version of chrome) for work and personal, it's useful to have browsers running alongside eachother.
