I was just wondering how many user on GiantBomb use Googles web browser? If you do, what features do you like about it? If you dont, what turns you off? I personally use Chrome over every browser I had on my PC(Safari and Firefox). Do you think they'll make it for iphone? I hope so!
Google Chrome...
I've been using chrome for awhile now, and I dig it overall.
"google chrome is the ultimate pr0n viewing browser. You just open an "incognito" window and it keeps zero record or history or anything.10/10 feature.

Do you think they'll make it for iphone?"I use Firefox because I can't live without my add-ons and I don't like some of Chrome's interface quirks. Why you have Safari installed on a PC is beyond me. And no, it will never be on iPhone because Apple won't let it. Maybe Android will eventually get a mobile version.

I couln't stand many things about it.
The way the favorites work is the worst.
Drop down menues won't scroll with the mouse wheel. how is that even possible to screw up?
None of my other aplications that I have integrated into Internet Exporer worked on Chrome.
And I just didn't like the whole feel of it.
oh, and it crashed often.

"Why wouldnt Google let Apple develop a Google Chrome app?"You've got that backwards. Anyway, Apple said they won't allow applications that compete with their own software (which includes anything they plan to implement in the future as well), and they've even acted on this policy on more than one occasion.
Love it but don't use it.
On my laptop, I can't scroll while browsing.
I can't write messages in hotmail.

"Love it but don't use it.Who uses hotmail anymore? GMail all day baby.

I tried it out when it launched and used it quite a bit.
I don't use it as much any more, but I still open it up from time to time to test bugs and stuff for web sites.
"I've been using chrome for awhile now, and I dig it overall.Yeah. I loving and hating chrome for the same reasons. But im still using it, so that a good sign.Likes:Super fast.Simple interfaceTab management is good.One address/search bar for everything.Dislikes:"Auto spell check doens't seem to work very often.Some pages fail to load completely (like a lot of amazon pages).Sometimes flash videos stutter/freeze.
Google Chrome is my favorite broswer.
"It's great. Good interface, I love how you can just get a new tab by pressing the plus button. Really fast and simple. I guess my only problem is spell check."
I have it, but I don't use it. Firefox 3's addons are just too much of a convenience for me to switch.
To Red: There is an addon that allows you to do that in Firefox, it's called tab mixed plus I believe.
I can't use anything else since I've started using Chrome. Firefox and IE feel so contrived and archaic now. lol
I don't like how plug-ins sometimes won't install when they should. However, with this still being in beta, it's understandable that there are some kinks to work out.
