java does not work
Hmmm, it has no full screen mode. That also sucks quite heavily.
omg it's fastttt! 2-3 sec faster on every website than safari :eek:
lost me there:rolleyes:Quote:
used by Apple’s Safari browser
and also , unless it supports mozilla plugins screw that , mozilla is a cool browser , but the addons and themes make it the best.;):up:
FF3 has one button that shows all history of a tab in a single drop down menu, both forwards and back. Say if you have a tab that has five pages forward and five pages backwards in the history you can see them all in the dropdown.
Chrome's implementation is much worse. You can can't see all history at once, you can only see backwards by pressing and holding the back button, forwards by pressing and holding the forward button. Worse yet, it takes about a second for the history to appear in chrome while pressing the "recent pages" button in Firefox is instantaneous.
At least it can use plugins of some sort, I don't think that it'll be able to use Mozilla plugins natively, maybe someone will write a wrapper? Dunno..
I'm missing my plugins too.
Edit:
1.) You can check the complete history the same way.
2.) This not instantaneous behaviour for sure is scripted/set this way, I#m sure you can change this.
Damn it. Just like safari Chrome doesn't support drag scrolling with the middle mouse button. :banana::banana::banana::banana: this :banana::banana::banana::banana:. It may have the most advanced internals in the world, but I can't live with a browser with such a gaping usability flaw.
damn it's fast!!!
very quick, i am loving it and feeling slightly sad about neglecting my little fox.
Really? how is it worse? It's minimalized, instead of two buttons, I have one, just press, I see my forward and reverse browsing history for that one tab. I'm still not sure what you're trying to complain about.
I just double clicked the browser pane, or hit the maximize button, and it appears to be in a "full-screen" mode to me...unless you mean something different...
after testing Google Chrome speed is its best asset
but since it is a new browsers there are some site that does not open properly and it needs some changes in the ergonomic design
maybe in the long run it will be a viable browser for now I am gonna stick with firefox
just my opinion by the way
by the way did someone did a system memory load test?
Thanks to the guy who mentioned right clicking the forward/backward buttons. That at least solves the delay problem.
No.... you have two buttons that have two functions each. Backwards button either moves the tab back one place in the history or shows a list of *only* backwards history. Forward button either moves the tab forward one place in the history or displays a list of *only* forward history. Firefox has three buttons with one function each. Backwards button moves the tab back one place in the history, forward moves it ahead, and the recent pages dropdown button displays the *combined* forward *and* backwards history of the tab. Right clicking either the forward or backwards buttons also shows the complete forward/backwards dropdown.
If for some reason you can understand that very simple description, open up a tab in Chrome and go to five different web pages. Press the backwards button two times. Right click the backwards button and you'll see the three pages you viewed before the current page. Right click the forward button and you'll see the two different pages that you first viewed after the current page. There is no combined forward/backwards dropdown menu.
Press F11 in IE or FF. Maximized windows are still windows, not full screen. Think of running a game in a maximized window vs. not running it in a window.
In any case, lack of scroll-drag is simply unacceptable. A pity, as Chrome seems really :banana::banana::banana::banana:ing fast but is all but unusable to me as long as it has that issue.
Not even gonna try it until there's adblock for it....
Nice....
But.....Missing my bookmarks at the left...
How is scrolling for you...I think it hacks a little..but i think it's my old tft screen and ancient CPU, combined with a 9600 pro : )
Memory usage is going through the roof over here,
Google Chrome taskmanager reports a total of
-175 MB for Chrome
-66 MB for Firefox 3
Windows taskmanager gives:
-43MB for Firefox 3
Reading the memory usage for Chrome is a little hard in windows task manager as every tab/plug-in and such is shown as a separate process.
Both browsers are opened with the same tabs (about 8-tabs), except for one and that is the "About Memory" tab in Chrome, which you don't have in Firefox.
BTW, typing this on Chrome atm. I'm really liking it although it does have some things that need improvement and most of all, I miss my add-ons.
@Frisch: Scrolling is a bit faster on Chrome because what would normally be 3 rows per scroll wheel click on Firefox is now about 6 rows on Chrome. This makes it appear a bit jerky over here, but I hope to be able to adjust this somehow.
EDIT: a minute after I wrote this it crashed :p:, although Chrome was quick to restart itself so it wasn't too much of a problem. Hmmm, I'm also really missing my "mousewheel click" scroll, so I guess I'll stick to Firefox for now.
Anyone read the privacy statement yet??
EDIT:
You do not need to provide any personally identifying information in order to download and use Google Chrome. When you download Google Chrome or use it to contact Google’s servers, Google receives only standard log information including your machine’s IP address and one or more cookies. You can configure Google Chrome to not send cookies to Google or other sites as explained here.
In addition, some Google Chrome features send limited additional information to Google:
When you type URLs or queries in the address bar, the letters you type are sent to Google so the Suggest feature can automatically recommend terms or URLs you may be looking for. If you choose to share usage statistics with Google and you accept a suggested query or URL, Google Chrome will send that information to Google as well. You can disable this feature as explained here.
If you navigate to a URL that does not exist, Google Chrome may send the URL to Google so we can help you find the URL you were looking for. You can disable this feature as explained here.
Google Chrome's SafeBrowsing feature periodically contacts Google's servers to download the most recent list of known phishing and malware sites. In addition, when you visit a site that we think could be a phishing or malware site, your browser will send Google a hashed, partial copy of the site's URL so that we can send more information about the risky URL. Google cannot determine the real URL you are visiting from this information. More information about how this works is here.
Your copy of Google Chrome includes one or more unique application numbers. These numbers and information about your installation of the browser (e.g., version number, language) will be sent to Google when you first install and use it and when Google Chrome automatically checks for updates. If you choose to send usage statistics and crash reports to Google, the browser will send us this information along with a unique application number as well. Crash reports can contain information from files, applications and services that were running at the time of a malfunction. We use crash reports to diagnose and try to fix any problems with the browser.
You may choose Google as your search engine using Google Chrome, and you may also use Google Chrome to access other Google services such as Gmail. The Privacy Policies of Gmail or other services apply when you access them, no matter which browser you use. Using Google Chrome to connect to Google services will not cause Google to receive any special or additional personally identifying information about you.
If it is really open source and I can get a hold of the source, I will take it, modify it, remove all contact made to any google servers (other than urls of course), then release it for everyone to use.
memory 15 MB here, but only one tab one open (XS :D )...oh yes, scrolling XS pages is slow. I had the same issue in IE8 beta2. Like in IE8, pages in Chrome load really fast, but scrolling is laggy on some sites (no lag on FF3 of course).
Oh forgot to say, can someone please run acid3 on this and give me a screenshot of the result? thanks :)

Crashing on my :banana::banana::banana::banana:ty work computer. Oh lordy I hate this computer.
1)
there is no home button - i could never use this browser here at work as my home page is my personal page for work stuff. and i am always using it
2)
uses MUCH more memory than IE does for the same web pages
3)
its speed is good
4)
i forget what else i didnt like lol
Scrolling XS pages for me is actually faster than IE. Possibly because its caching more items in RAM than IE does ?Quote:
oh yes, scrolling XS pages is slow
