Google Chrome – Am I Late to The Party?
So apparently Google announced a new web browser over the weekend while I was busy playing Ticket to Ride. We’ll all be able to take it for a test drive tomorrow, but in the meantime I feel like I’ve heard of this before …is it one of those things that’s been headlined on CNet once a month for the last year?
Nah, this is the first I’ve heard of an actual product, too. I vaguely recall mention of a possible browser back a few years ago, when every other headline was, “Google is positioning itself to take over the OS/office suite/Internet/entire world” but I could be crazy. Anyway, I’m writing this comment from that browser now, and my initial impression is…I’ll be sticking with Firefox.
You tried it yet?
I’m trying it now. Seems ok sofar, but I’m not blown away. I do already have an opinion on the location-box-below-tab layout – it does make sense and isn’t distracting..
