Any of you try it yet? It's nice, no plugins but I like the interface and it's really fast. You can get it here.

I like the slim look… it also does the whole "desktop web app shortcut" thing similar to Mozilla's Prism, but for Windows (not discussing Cygwin possibilities here). I'll probably check out the Beta and see how extensible it is; if it does at least twice what iGoogle does, I'll be happy… to use it as an alternative, that is.

The layout and everything is nice. It is quick, but so is Firefox. I think Google just got a late start in the browser game. Tho with some time they may be able to improve. At the moment I will not be using it much or developing web pages for the browser.

Eh, it didn't get released until today. It can become big later on with the proper updates etc. It's pretty promising, speed wise and a few other things I like.

Late? No no no. They are helping to push browsing to a new level. http://blogoscoped.com/google-chrome/ [/quote]

Yeah. Besides, it's really the first browser in recent memory that's fairly popular (for it's first day of release; besides it's from google it gets instant gratification) and has been coded completely from scratch. Firefox was originally based on the netscape framework.

Well as I said "Tho with some time they may be able to improve". Tho good points on the coding aspect. I did not know firefox was based off of anything. Also the only reason it is so popular the first day is because ITS FUCKING GOOGLE lol. Google has the resources to do some great things. I look forward to it, I do.

It doesnt seem too bad. I think it has potential, and this is only the beta version. As google said (if anyone bothered to read the "why we made this browser" section) the browser is far from finished.

Looks good but until it can also use FF add-ons like Web-Dev or Firebug and shiznit then I'll stick with FF.

The whole interface looks very nice and clean;) It seems as fast as Firefox but not nearly as flexible or configurable as Firefox
