I'm still scratching my head over the name. Firefox's internal resource handling system is also called Chrome. Seems they would have tried to pick something else ?(
I will probably stay away from it. Google has become the other 800 pound gorilla. They are downplaying the browser experience with excuses on getting to the content quicker. They do not like noscript and the effect it has on their ad strategy and want more control over getting your browsing habits.
Follow the money. :P I'm gonna give it a couple months, too. See what the pointy black hats come up with about it first.Quote:

I don't mind googles ad strategy. They are to be the only smart 800 pound gorilla I have seen.
www.opera.com ftw!
i still think it's funny that they think it's new.
the browser == today's vt100 terminal ... mainframer's unite!
don't look at me, i'm a desktop fan... windows/linux... and i thought we pretty much killed the concept of the mainframe in the late 80s/early 90s. today, people think everything must be in a browser. talk about a hammer seeing every problem as a nail...
I remember the days when I would dial up a BBS to DL some porn.
You might want to hold off on creating any content in chrome that you feel is important. If this is the route they plan on taking, I plan not to follow.

Agreeing to the Chrome EULA would be careeer suicide for any professional artist, photographer, musician, or writer.
It doesn't say anything you make. It says anything you make while using chrome.Quote:
