Advantages: Low on resources, high on speed and perfect for flash video

Disadvantages: Not many features

I was a bit sceptical at first, with this being the first internet browser from the search engine giant, but I was presently surprised.

I was with Google Chrome since the Beta and I have it installed on all of my computers for when Firefox breaks down. I didn't like Chrome at first because of the lack of features but it is an incredibly small program and loads web pages at warp speed. I couldn't believe how fast it loads pages compared to Firefox. It does flash video 100% better than Firefox and although it can be a pain installing Adobe Flash first time it was definitely worth it.
I like the automatic spell-checker that Safari have been using for ages, I like the simple design and I like the fact that it takes up little space on your computer both in terms of resources and hard drive space. I also like the 'incognito' new window option which is sometimes a life saver (especially for men).

So overall then a great little web browser and although it'll never replace Firefox as my default it is my number two. Go on give it a go!

Summary: An ideal rival to Firefox
