So what do we think of the all new Google Chrome? Well to start of with it was made available on September 2 and many users have different opinions, some good and some bad of course, as they say where ever there is good the bad always follows.
Google say that Chrome is a brand new web browser with a difference and personally I agree with them as it is definitely different, I personally prefer Firefox and have been using it for a while now. Firefox is smoother and so much better for me. I cannot put my finger on it why I prefer Firefox but I just prefer it to Chrome.
Google say that Chrome is safer, faster and much easier to use but I beg to dither and many of you agree. Internet Explorer in my eyes will be dead in the water soon as more and more users have turned to Firefox, the question is “Will they turn to Google Chrome? This is what a few users of Google Chrome have said.
The Bad:
Well I too was unimpressed with the Google Chrome browser. There are a couple of sites that is go to that require Java to login and each site told me that I was not running the correct version. Now I know some businesses use these sites for payroll and accounting business services and such. Chrome will not be of any use unless the java platform is backward compatible. I really did not see any speed increases like the cartoon/comic said. I will continue to test the product and look for some major updates. I will not be advising anyone to use Chrome with out having a secondary available to go to the real websites.
The Good:
I am quite impressed. It is much, much faster than IE7, Firefox and Safari for Windows, smaller in file size, and appears to tie up fewer resources. There are some minor glitches to be expected with a beta version: no Java applet for my office homepage; Sirius media player doesn’t work, etc. I have no doubt these issues will be addressed in the days and weeks to come. So far, so good!
Personally I believe Firefox is much better and easier to use, yes Google Chrome may be faster but speed is no good if there is flaws, it has too much missing. What do you use? Google Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer

I completely agree with you. I have tried Chrome and don’t think it is bad but I continue to use Firefox. I can’t really figure out why I like Firefox better…Chrome just seems to be missing something to me, but I can’t figure out what that “something” is.

I prefer Chrome, I do feel it’s faster and smoother to use than FF, though on some pages when I want to watch programmes using Windows Media, I have to open up FF, as Chrome doesn’t appear to even show it. I automatically click on my Chrome icon now whenever I need to go on the web, I just love it. I wouldn’t be surprised if both Chrome and Firefox became the market leaders in terms of browsers in a few years/months time (and leaving IE out in third place!).

Notes:
Chrome is a kind of browser, just like Internet Explorer and Firefox. It's said that Chrome is safer than the other broswers. Personally, I haven't used it so far.
