Google Chrome mini-review
Yesterday, I posted about the Google Chrome browser, and today I bring you my mini-review of it.
Google Chrome is overall a great browser that has a few features that set it apart from the crowd. First, each tab is a “sandbox”, so if a flash object (for example) crashes one tab, it only makes that tab close, not your entire browser (and for me that is a big plus, as I have over 10 tabs open a lot of the time and don’t want to lose those particular sites).
Second, when you open a page for a new tab, it will show you your 10 (or so) most visited sites, and your recently closed tabs. This can help if you do encounter a tab-crash (I haven’t so far, but it could happen).
Third, The tabs are located above the address bar. Some would call this a feature, some might just say that you can do the same thing in Opera.
Finally, It does an alright job on the Acid2 test.
Overall, I would recommend Google Chrome as an alright browser for day-to-day use. However, adding an addon feature (Adblock Plus FTW), would be a big plus, and might sway me from using Firefox 3 all the time.
