Made this thread using the new beta version :p

For those who don't know it's a new web browser made by google.

I was a bit sceptical about using it at first since my firefox has been customised to hell but upon installing, Chrome imported all the stuff (except the plug ins ofc)

Feels very smooth and is easy to use and access, what do others think?

Using it to reply, is okay. The blue bar at the top looks odd to me though. Quite interesting. Quite quick too.

EDIT: Doesn't let me use scroll wheel! :( (As in, press the drag)

I've only downloaded the browers so far, are there any popup blockers etc etc for it yet?

yeah its nice, i'm shocked i am going to say this.... i love IE8!

Its even faster than FF3 and i'm loving the add ons like highlighting an address and instantly getting a map location for it etc

Chrome have a nice feeling to it for sure
big question is if it work together with some of the applications I need to use in work, mostly that which forced me to stay with IE insted of FF cause FF didnt support, or rather these shit programs didn't support FF

I like it, the can't scroll up is bugging me with the mouse wheel.

But is it very fast, needs some more tweeks but really its gonna be very good when its done
