Google Chrome Review

I have now been using Chrome for almost 12hrs I have some very great things to say about it, but there are also small bugs to report. First off I must say I love the look, simple, gives me plenty of viewing space even on lower resolutions, it’s almost like hitting F11 in Firefox but permanently yet not nearly as annoying. Bookmark system is simple and keeps to what you’re used to for Google bookmarks.

Things I found a bit odd, well the oddest one has to be Create application shortcuts. I am not sure who this is fooling but this is simply a shortcut to url you could always do this they just gave it a fancier name and put emphasis on the fact that you can do it simply. I found that there are a few things that didn’t work if I set Chrome to my default browser. The Google desktop search function that you open with Ctrl x 2, launches a Google search. But if Chrome was my default browser it wasn’t handling the command line parameters sent to it properly and my search never happened just blank pages.

Now on to things I have found to be very great. I work on sites with a lot of JavaScript and many layers and on my slower computer I could see a very big difference in page load times on the client side. Things appeared on screen much more smoothly. I haven’t had a tab crash on my yet so I can’t say anything about the task manager system yet. Most features are pretty standard in most browsers. The popup blocker is seamless and lets you access the blocked windows with a lot of ease, can’t really even compare to anything that’s how simple it was for me.

So in my conclusion of my first 12hrs… It’s too stable to review its recovery features, it outperformed other browsers on slower computers for me (I can’t see a difference on my high end gaming machine as they all work pretty flawlessly there). Features are nice and tightly packed with absolutely no wasted space. I personally love this browser and plan on keeping using it. I almost forgot to mention this, I work on at least 10 different sites and I didn’t have to adjust any of the CSS or HTML for any of the sites to work SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I was quite afraid when I heard this coming out.
