Anyone else using this?
Seems to be much faster than Firefox, nice features too.

Have been using it about since it came out. Some good things about it and still some buggy things, especially with certain web sites. Ebay noteably behaves weirdly at times.

Nothing too exciting about it. I still think that Firefox and Explorer are a better choice. If you want something different look at Opera. Much better than this google chrome so far. Just my 2 cents.

I tried it, dont really care for it. It is fast, but lacks some of the conviences of IE and FF. Plus a lot of CSS doesnt display correctly and a lot of JavaScripts dont execute properly.

Been using it for about a month now.

Definitely quicker than Firefox, but I miss the addins too much to move across.

Also get problems with some sites thinking it's an old version of Safari

Overall - not bad but needs improving

Anybody heard of cuil.com. It is said to be a GOOGLE on steroids. I don't use it much as old habits are hard to break but it gives a nice D-script of the content and adds some photos too. It's worth a try if you want to try something new.
