Title: Google's new browser
Post by omar on Sep 3^rd, 2008, 11:01am

I am posting this using Google's new browser called Chrome. I also made a move in my postal game with it; using the V2 client. The browser seems to be working great. In benchmarks it is reported to renders static pages about twice as fast as Firefox.

What really attracts me to this browser is that it was built from scratch to support web applications. In benchmarks it runs Javascript code about 100 times faster than IE!! That really opens the door for Javascript based applications that run in a browser.

lol I might check that out, but I just got firefox like ~2 weeks ago :D . I mean I used IE for like 7 years, and now it's like "... why did i use that for 7 years?" Does chrome do any kind of add-ons like firefox does?

I'm sure it does; but I haven't tried any though.
