I have installed the new Google Chrome Browser.
Has anyone experience with that, compared to Mozilla Firefox?

I have just installed it, and I'm still exploring, but it doesn't seem too bad at all.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to make it my default browser.
I liked firefox, too, but it always closed down unexpectedly with windows vista, so I'll see how the google browser works.

Click on the wrench icon in the upper right hand corner, and it is under the options menu. I like Chrome, but it is based of the webkit web browser. There are some security issues with it, and some compatibility issues. My laptop scroll area on my trackpad does not work with Chrome. I blogged about it a bit ago.

Third post down. If you like Chrome, but have issues, check out webkit and/or safari. I like safari, and use it on the laptop.

Yeah like there are no security issues with the other browsers! Chrome is nice but still a little bit buggy with some sites. And it's partially based on webkit:

Don't forget too, it's still a beta application. When Google spend more time on it I think it's going to give a hell of a lot of browsers a run for their money.

I like it so far, but a lot of websites don't recognize it yet. I'll keep it for another while and see what happens
