    Here some nice features about the google Chrome,Google Chrome aims to improve security, speed, and stability. There are extensive differences from its peers in Chrome's minimalistic user interface,which is atypical of modern web browsers.Chrome's strength is its application performance and JavaScript processing speed, both of which were independently verified by multiple websites to be the swiftest amongst the major browsers of its time.However, with the advent of WebKit's Squirrelfish Extreme and Mozilla's TraceMonkey JavaScript engines, Chrome's JavaScript execution performance has been found to be slower.Many of Chrome's unique features had been previously announced by other browser developers, but Google was the first to implement and publicly release them. For example, its most prominent graphical user interface (GUI) innovation, the merging of the address bar and search bar (the Omnibox) was first announced by Mozilla in September 2008 as a planned feature for Firefox.Chrome was assembled from 26 different code libraries from Google and others from third parties such as Netscape.

    If you bothered using paragraphs and other means to structure your post in some way to make it readable that would be advantageous. Because you didn't, I didn't bother reading it. Oh well, now I did skim it, prompting the question: Where did you copy-paste that crap from? Some commercial?

    As for Chrome, last thing I read a while back was that Google Chrome also 'calls home' a lot and supplies Google with a lot of your private data they're not entitled too, iirc down to actual key logging. They apparently don't think highly of privacy.

    From this article:
    That was from 2008, I know, and Google Chrome might have changed, but I don't believe that. When I read about the privacy issues Google Chrome ceased to be an option.

    Try Firefox or Opera. Good browsers both, and far less snoopy.

    Dammit, another spammer. I didn't figure that Google would lower itself to this level. Google is now officially: not-cool™

    As a programmer, I can only lol at this:
    Well whoopie-doo!!

    I kinda doubt that this is Google-sponsored... probably just a poor attempt at appearing as a legit user so they can add spam to the sig later. But Indian spammers tend to have problems with being spotted a mile off. Anyway, he's banned now, but if anyone's interested in discussing Chrome, go ahead.
