Comments on: Why Google Chrome? Fast browsing = $$$

Google is betting that its Chrome browser will speed up Web search, Web advertising, and Web applications--even if it's because it forces Microsoft to improve IE.

[YankeePoodle]

Apple made the same claim, but I trust google more than apple. But again comparing beta to beta IE8 vs Chrome would give lot of cool results.

[Rama Yudhistira]

Yeah, Apple sucks. Google better.

[smokified]

I am using it now and it is MUCH faster than IE7 and Firefux

[onlyauser]

SPEEDY!

[pkrey]

Yay! I wasn't challenged enough trying to make IE, Firefox, etc look the same when I build a site, please give me yet another standard to try and make consistent with all the other browsers. I'm sure Chrome will "mirror" the other browses as well as... chrome.

[Shankland]

Google said that since Chrome uses the WebKit rendering engine, Web developers won't have to worry about another browser. If it works in Safari, which also uses WebKit, it'll work in Chrome. We'll see if that's true, of course, and certainly not all sites work with Safari. But the more serious browser alternatives, the more standards matter and the less the dominant power's market share matters. I'm not convinced Chrome will push the Web into full standards mode, but it's certainly a nudge in that direction.

SLIM, SEXY & SMART!!!!

I haven't even bothered to try IE8, but I downloaded Chrome at 12:02 pm today. It's very, very fast. There's one must-have that Firefox has that Chrome doesn't -- ability to search inside fields.

The add-ons in Firefox will keep me with Firefox for now. But I'll probably keep both open.

If this is only the beta,Just wait till full version release. This is the fastest browser i've ever used.
Nice work Google.

I just noticed Chrome installed the binaries under my users folder instead of the system wide program files folder which is annoying. I'll have to do some file copying or run the install program for each user on the system now. Did anyone else have this problem? Hope they change that on release.

Put on the pointy hat, and go sit in the corner. Either that, or familiarize yourself with Google's documentation on Chrome.

GGGlen: You actually look like a complete idiot with that reply. At the time when I posted the comment the beta was just out and I'd had it for a whole hour tops and used it for about ten minutes. As of yesterday when I installed it the installer did not ask if I'd like to install it for all users. The installer is actually a net installer and now it's a well known issue on the Internet that the Chrome beta likes to install it itself in a rather odd location probably to avoid the UAC prompt. While it does avoid the UAC prompt it isn't the normal way to handle the situation.

It's obvious you had no idea what I was talking about when you posted that comment. I was simply asking for help with a new product that had just been recently released that everybody was/still is trying to get a grip on. I was just trying to save some bandwidth by not having to run a net installer twice if I didn't have to.

The reason you're an idiot is because not everybody knows everything about a product that's new and still in beta, but when someone asks for some help or suggestions you come along a day late to a problem I've already dealt with and not only do you still not have an answer. The only thing you can supply is an insult to an issue long gone and that you probably still don't even understand.

Someone that insults a person asking for help or asking for suggestions is the worst kind of human being and should have a dunce cap surgically implanted over their face so no one even has to look at you.

Im really amazed how fast Chrome is.

I thought FF3 got a speed improvement, but Google did great: Its damn fast!

From what I say: Chrome is much more quicker than a Firefox running on Linux.

Congratulations Google!

The bottlenecks on the Internet are NOT caused by any browser, it's the servers one connects with..!!!!

[Mark_Smith]

CHROME IS DAMN FAST! AT LAST!

[birds08]

V8 is the power engine base on JavaScript .

[Mark_Smith]

BUT.....try to access www.youtube.com with Chrome, and try to do the same using Firefox. Every search i did using chrome, when i click on the video link says the video is not avaiable anymore. Now if i do the same with Firefox, the video is there working ok.

Some copyright filter code embeded into Chrome, by Google? Or some adjust preset in Chrome preferences?

[Kasee]

well, though this is beta - but always Google changes the way i work with internet; i have at least 2 GB ram in my laptop and computers; so never mind if it eats little more memory;
all i like is
1. address bar lists the websites
2. search facility with the history of websites visited
3. very stable; i don't close any tabs from the time i start working till i finish for the day
4. incognito mode for opening dangerous websites and some times in internet browsing centers
5. very fast compared to my firefox during run time as well as during start up;

[Jim Harmon]

Oh goody, just what the world needs - a new browser.

[yvsunil]

The browser i've been waiting for... Google Chrome surely gonna be a hit. CHROME Rocks!!!

[Vrindavan134]

Do not trust Google Chrome.

Chrome is spyware mascaraing as a browser.

[Rama Yudhistira]

Most geek people said that.
I don't believe it, Cause' I'm a nerd.

[osjemau]

What I learned ex a German provider is that Chrome is full of links to cut you privacy to zero!!!
