    its a good browser its fast for me and streams video and music really fast also downloads are way faster. The graphics also tend to look better on chrome for me ayways then other browsers. And you gotta love the incognito mode, it does not save cookies or history of places you went to.

    when you turn on incognito the browser doesnt save web history, cookies, etc.. could be useful in visiting certain.... questionable sites :D

    It's not run by my computer. I stumbled upon that image only.
    Someone else did the test.
    But i do believe IE will run slower as usual compare to FF and Chrome.

    It's for surfing the site anonymously.
    Something like working on proxy where you won't leave trace of any of your personal data (cookie, etc).
    Good to use for multiple accounts in neopets :D

    While I still prefer Firefox, I like Google Chrome. I think I'm just used to FF. I'll probably make the change eventually. :)

    Anyone knows how to remove useless scripts and block ads with Chrome?

    I'm using it and I really love it. The only reason I'm keeping Ff around is the add-ons. :)

    google chrome is great. Anyway, i don't know why mine having a crash that day when opening some flash video. And after that, it refused to start up, so i've uninstalled it and wait patiently for a stable release. :D

    Looks like a bad version of firefox, But i guess if microsoft and Mozilla's doing it Google might as well too right ?
