plus my web browser can automatically fetch stock quotes and dump some interesting movements into my excel spreedsheet, even login to my trading account, and trigger buy and sell automatically very simple
what Chrome will do? they will lay some cookies in your computer, track what you traded, which site you visited, and ..... so GOOGLE will know everything about you, you are in losing situation, do not let google control you, you control yourself and you win
Just a few pointers as I blitz this baby... PRO: - Very Very Very fast web page loads. - Easy browsing with just a little change than normal button locations. - Tried like hell to crash pages with no luck. CON: -No Java support and some Adobe Flash issues. -Youtube doesn't work on this browser unless linked and viewed in another site. (WTF is that about!!!) - Myspace issues with background visual. -No page history drop down. This browser basically delivers on the biggest complaints of IE and Mozilla, but fails on the basics the other ones offer. I am sure the list can go on and on, all in all I am very impressed for an initial release of a browser. Just a little baffled that they seemed to miss some very basic (DUH) inclusions.
Well... this is still a beta. They've only provided the raw browser (actually... it's more like a web app. launcher) and you'll have to give it a few months to actually decide how much impact they can give. Though, the concept they have behind the technology is OK, Opera and FF seems faster . The first goal is to beat Opera and then FireFox. They have the technological design to do it. What Google has to do is to make the development for the web designers easy. Keeping a substantial number of staff for support and developing a strong developer community would be the key to their success. LONG on Chrome. Considering Google's marketing strength and presence in the online industry.
I'm in agreement with a lot of the folks on here. While I am unhappy with MS bloatware - and have felt that they should offer a non-backwardly compatible version of their software for years to allow for fresh starts - I am not too keen on allowing google, inc. to 'Learn' from the mass of data that pours through it. Forget about the absence of privacy - our society has already thrown that away in favor of convenience - my question is WHY do they want all that data? Since it hasn't been explained to me in terms I can understand, I won't participate, thanks.
Google already has it's own Linux, which they use only internally. I do agree with Red Hat. But instead of hiring Red Hat employees they should buy Red Hat for a small premium (25% ?) over the 4 Billion that the market says Red Hat is worth. I'm using Fedora 8 and like it. If GOOG bought RHT MSFT would drop 20% in one day. Google Chrome isn't available for Linux at this time, but I will give it a try if they release a Linux version.
I've been using Chrome all day, but I really miss the drop-down address bar and the add-ons (webmail notifier, forecast fox, foxclocks, etc) that make Firefox so great. Edit: The Google Chrome logo sort of freaks me out - looks like some giant eyeball staring at me.
Just a way for GOOG to track every single page you look at on the web, archive it for eternity and throw up ads to every single page you view whether it has adsense or not. Next they add in cloud computing and capture every single bit of data that runs thru your PC and store every transaction you make for all eternity. Of course since they have that motto - don't be evil - they would never do anything with all that info. Just hold it for eternity. Nothing else. The NSA must be sooooo jealous.
