To Chrome Or Not To Chrome…
by admin on Sep.06, 2008, under Opinion
So I downloaded Google’s new beta browser “Chrome” and all I have to say is “Wow!”
It’s far better than I thought it would be and more.
It’s streamlined, fast, and extremely inutitive. You need to download a copy RIGHT NOW and play with it. I’m using it type this blog entry, I’m so in love with it.
Sure Chrome isn’t as customizable as Firefox or Safari (yet), but it’s version 1 beta. And if I know Google, the company will dramatically improve the browser with every revision. Just look at Gmail, which is the greatest thing since sliced bread when it comes to personal email programs, as far as I’m concerned.
What makes me love Chrome so much, you ask? The answer is simple: simplicity.
The interface makes it a pleasure to use, because it uses tabs that actually look like folder tabs at the top. The browser window is also startingly clutter-free. Its interface is far superior to the safari interface I used to rave about, as well.
So get to downloadin’ foos, and learn what I already know: Chrome Rawks!!1
[UPDATE]: I just made Chrome my default browser on my laptop, knocking Firefox out of that spot. Not because it’s an overall better browser at this point, but simply because it’s easier to use. And I hate having to to actually think while surfing the net.
Now if Google could just do something with that ugly Microsoft-looking Chrome icon, it would be nearly perfect…
