flashin' chrome
i pretty much dig everything google has brought into the world. gmail, maps, google sketchup, today they launched their very own web browser, Chrome. i have been a firefox user for quite some time now but after less than a day of use, Chrome is my new browser. i know that i have only begun to discover the tricks and features, but i like it. it is designed with the web in mind. i know, you are thinking aren't all web browsers made with the web in mind? yeah, no. somehow Chrome just works, it imported all my bookmarks and passwords from firefox, and somehow i haven't had to go install all those plug-ins, like you do when you first use a new browser. somehow it all just works. of course this version is called a beta(test/develpoment version) and i have discovered one bug, when scrolling vertically via "virtual scrolling" on my trackpad, Chrome let's me scrool down but not back up a page. hope that gets fixed quick. other than that, my only complaint is certain online accessibilty issues i am having with my school's network, it doesn't recognize Chrome yet, so i have to use firefox to access online classes. go download Chrome and give it a rip.
