I'm almost a Chrome convert...

Finally got around to trying Chrome - thumbs up. Keeping in mind that I am inherently suspicious of the big G because of their dominance and all - but gotta admit I like Chrome. Smooth. Minimalistic interface. Lacks clutter. Quick. Elegant.

I seem to remember reading that in the terms you are giving google the right to track everywhere you go if you use their browser. I am not sure if I really care if google knows every url I visit, but just based on that I would not use Chrome.

Printing does not have the very useful "Options" tab, which allows one to print "The selected frame".

Anyone using Mozilla FF 3.7a?

I am busy using alpha6 at the moment and it is fantastic :D

I was using Chrome 5.0.375.38 under Kubuntu 10.04, will try from Ubuntu 10.04 when I start my network printer later.
 
I've just found a couple of *major* irritations in Chrome.
When copying text containing super/subscripts from Chrome to OO, the super/subscripting is lost (FF copies the correct characters to the clipboard)
When copying a table containing images from Chrome to OO, a link is given but not the image (a copy/paste from FF follows the link and draws the image)

It took me nearly two hours to figure out Chrome was the problem here.
 
can't remember what the issues were, but I have reverted back to FF
 
Chrome and flash got me back to FF, I have had some other niggles and headaches but can't remember then now.

On my WinXP netbook I use Chrome and like it, it just does not feel polished in Linux.
 
I've used FF since the dawn of time, it seems. And being the lazy creature I am, I tend to stick with it. But I've tried Chromium a couple times and it is pretty spritely.

If Mozilla were to suddenly drop in an entirely new UI style, I would be absolutely lost. I have Opera, but it somehow 'feels' too much like IE <shudder>.

I use chrome for one website because the shoutbox makes FF lag like crazy, and its sometimes easier just to do what i want in chrome (wile using said website) then open up FF, but its never as good as FF and I'm always glad to be using FF it again :D

Read your sentence slowly and then tell me what you're smoking at your secret base in the mountains.
