Google Chrome, My Thoughts
I am aware that Google Chrome has been out for a long time now, but I decided to finally try it out for myself and give a review after 2 weeks of use. My final thoughts on Chrome are this…if you are a sworn Firefox user stick with Firefox.
Personally speaking I have used Firefox for a long time now. I have always admired the tab system it uses and even though IE now has that system I still enjoy Firefox. I even dabbled a little in using Lolifox for those who might have heard of that. Some of the anime sites I go to now were because they were pre-bookmarked with Lolifox. This is about Google Chrome though.
Design was pretty good. They did not make it an exact clone of any internet browsers I have seen. Though the bad thing is that there is only one theme and themes are not easily changeable. There are ways to do it, and I ended up giving mine a Deviant Art color scheme through this site:
Browsing and use were good as well. When first opening Chrome is shows some screenshots with sites you like to visit and site you have last visited. Though might be good for someone who is on a family computer looking at hentai.
Everything seems pretty nice so far, though here is where I ran into a problem. Some of the site I visit ran into some serious problems trying to load. As well as the fact that some pop windows that some sites us e to display smiles were a bit messy for me. My biggest problem was using WordPress. If you look at my previous post there was some issues with the picture captions. I was using Google Chrome at the time. I am a pretty devoted user to WordPress due to the ease of use. When I saw that Chrome was giving me problems I was right back to Firefox.
