Google Chrome (Browser)

4 things missing in Google's Browser: Chrome

  1. Searching strings on a page (Ctr+f) don't search text inside input and textarea fields. As a developer I need this.
  2. View source opens a new tab, and not a new window like Firefox. I shut the browser 10 times each day I try to use it before I learn it.
  3. If you have more than 1 tabs and you hit the browser's closing button by mistake, the window shuts down with no warning. Not cool.
  4. I miss Firebug..


They still have a long way to go before I consider using it. But I won't give up, it will take over the other browsers I'm sure!





Good things about Chrome browser:

  1. Looks nice: There is more space on the screen since there are less toolbars floating around and the status bar at the bottom is hidden.
  2. URL bar works for search as well; saves time.
  3. Clever new plugins


About The Browser

According to Google

Google Chrome is a free web browser that is fast and easy to use, while keeping you safe on the Web. It is currently available for Windows (XP and Vista), Mac OS X, and Linux.



The browser created by Google, known as Google Chrome, is available free for Microsoft Windows, Mac, and Linux. Google Chrome offers fast start times, tabbed browsing, a minimal interface, and can be personalized using themes. Although Google Chrome is still in the early stages of development, it is an excellent choice for those looking for a fast, responsive browser that gets out of your way and allows you to surf or work the way you want to.

Google designed Google Chrome to be fast and unobtrusive, with running Google applications and other web applications in mind. Like many other modern browsers, Google Chrome has tabbed browsing so you can have multiple applications or surf several web sites at the same time in a single browser window. Running each application or website in its own “sandbox” is a unique feature of Google Chrome’s tabbed browsing. To put it simply, if one tab experiences a crash your other tabs will keep running. Protecting your tabs against possible malware attacks from other tabs is another advantage of each tab running in its own sandbox.

Google Chrome launches almost instantly, you'll be surfing the Internet or running web applications in record time. Themes, especially those provided by artists, allow you customize your browser just the way you like it. With features like tabbed browsing and sandboxing, you can do more while confident that you won’t lose your important data to a crash or malware.


Google Chrome Description

Google Chrome is perhaps one of the greatest internet innovations since Mozilla Firefox. Created by the Google corporation, Chrome is a very comprehensive web browser. It is well known for it's incredible speed as an over all browser. Even still, as it only comes with few features, it is still a very well designed, aesthetic-wise, program.

At any rate, the program works well on various operating systems. That list of operating systems does also include the Linux OS.

Now, there is a single feature that may need to either be over looked or it needs to be regarded as a major issue. The chrome program does not allow for certain real-time scripts that are usually included in I.M programs in your web browser. Knowing this, be advised that the new texting feature in the yahoo interface will not be available to you.
