Advantages: Simple to use, Speedy, Efficient, Reliable
Disadvantages: Some websites are not compatible, Too simple?
First things first. I run Google Chrome on my Acer Aspire 5735 laptop, operating system is Windows Vista Basic.
I updated my Internet Explorer 7 a few months ago to the Internet Explorer 8 and immediately hated it. Previously I could not be taken away from Internet Explorers. My friends recommended Mozilla Firefox, but I refused as Internet Explorer had never let me down before.
But now, with Internet Explorer 8 on my system, I was facing my worst nightmare. The connection rate was slow, the interface seemed unfinished, add-ons were continuously causing the Internet to crash and even after removing them, crashing was still frequent! I needed to find my self a new browser, and fast!
My friend Jamie, who is an IT Specialist recommended I try out Google Chrome, so I did just that.
I have been using Google Chrome around two months now and I think I am potentially in love with it. It's light, simplistic design is easy on the eyes, the connection rates are quick, and the add-ons that come with it are fantastic.
Having the ability to do a Google search from the address bar is pretty cool, and opening a new tab brings up a list of your most visited site, which comes in useful for me as I am a member of a number of online communities and also run my own websites so it is like a CCTV system at times!
Since I have been running Google Chrome it has not crashed once and no sufficient issues are yet to arise!
All I can say on the negative side is that some users may find its simplistic appearance too basic, but if you just want to browse the internet trouble free, this browser is as good as any! Also a minority of websites are yet to establish a site that Google Chrome can run on, but in time, this will no longer be an issue!
Summary: The simplistic design ensures Google Chrome is for everyone!

- 08/07/09 Chrome is going to have to offer me far more to tempt me away from Firefox. |
