Google Chrome – Another webbrowser (updated)

1 Comment

Yes, it has arrived, and can be downloaded as a Beta. I am writing this post using it. It looks neat, no innovative design, but over all easy to navigate. It imported bookmarks and saved passwords from FireFox without any problems. (Don’t have anything in my IE so dunno how/if that works smoothly as well)

What strikes me at first is that there’s very little settings to be done, guess that will change when it is completed and out of Beta state. I did expect it to be a bit more though. Will use it for a few days and see how I like it as everyday browser. 🙂

The download can be found here: www.google.com/chrome

UPDATE: I have now used it for a day, and I’m not sure it will be my default browser in it’s current state.

  1. Can’t refresh page by rightclick anywhere, it only has that on the tab.
  2. Can’t view source of a peticlular part of site, something I use very often in FireFox.

This didn’t really seem like a good idea, as eventually someone would trip on it. Continue reading Turn your computer into a local radiostation →
