Google Chrome: If you haven't tried it yet, you really should...

By Ray on September 3, 2008 - 6:05am

It's early yet for beating the drum and singing praises, but so far, I like what I'm seeing. This little program seems to be designed to simplify our lives, rather than make them more complicated. I hope they show Microsoft how it's done! And they don't insist that everything should be 'Google' - and I suspected they might - and I was wrong.

They give you a choice of using any of the major (or minor) search engines currently known to mankind, and all you have to do to get one of them going is open Chrome, select Tools (look for the little wrench in the upper right), then find the button marked 'Manage', click it, and choose your favorite search engine from a l-o-n-g list, which also has a second list below it in case you didn't find your choice in the first 14... - See how easy it is? Browsing can be fun. Try it...

This just in from Mr. Google.....

Maybe you should read this one for yourselves, everyone, and then you'll know that I'm not just spreading idle gossip. Tomorrow, we see the beta of Google's 'Chrome', the new browser, so says Mr. Google. I can't hardly wait...

Here's a little more on this from the news...and still more here. And yet more here... And now, for a few words from the boss over at Firefox about this...and I must say I enjoyed the description of what Google is and isn't. Right on! This all brings me to my Question Everything which is: "When does the hype end and the happening begin?"
