Does it support:
-Spell Check  Yes
-Auto-complete address by searching through your entire history with sippets of similar addresses  Yes
-Good search toolbar  The search toolbar is integrated with the address bar. This has more info.
-Shortcut/Favorites "toolbar"Â Â Yep
-Good plug-ins/plugin support  Right now, as far as I know, no, which is why I won't be using it regularly.
Just wondering. Also, not a fan of the look.

I'm not leaving firefox just yet.
Re: Google Chrome - Surf314 - 09-02-2008
I been using it and I like it. I'll keep using it until I have a reason to switch back. Although lack of RSS might be that reason.

edit: two more things... One, sometimes the window is over top f everything and I can't access the hidden start menu at the bottom of the screen.
More importantly... Where do i download the plugins?!?!?
Everything he said. Though the only plugin I really care about is adblock plus, I don't need anything else. :|
Re: Google Chrome - jdub28 - 09-02-2008
im assuming its open source so it will be probably a few weeks before the plug ins and extensions come rolling in

I do like that it is running smoother than Firefox and opening stuff faster. Was slowing down a bit when I was checking a movie news site, but it's doing pretty nice for the most part. Just hoping for a newer theme soon cause this one is pretty...lame...
Re: Google Chrome - ZargonX - 09-03-2008
Definitely runs faster than IE and FF, and loads pages faster. Though, as others have said, once it has a larger library of plugins, it'll be worth more than just a cursory useage.
Re: Google Chrome - HeK - 09-03-2008
Wow, it really chugs on flash and freezes up on PDFs. Does not like the third-party plugins so far...
Also, in before name change. There already is a 'Chrome' in the os world.

Re: Google Chrome - Blues - 11-24-2008
Still full of holes and vulnerabilities. D:
I'll probably be sticking with Crazy Browser regardless.
Re: Google Chrome - Eschatos - 11-24-2008
I wish there was a browser that didn't have the problem of movie players/flash not working when I have more than 50 tabs open.Â

You're complaining about Chrome's security while using an IE based browser? Oh the irony...
About Chrome: it has indeed a lot of privacy/security issues and I miss my firefox add-ons too much... TBH I'm waiting for firefox 3.1 which will also have a jscript VM (the source of chrome's speed) and a lot of other improvements....
