First Impression of Google Chrome

September 2, 2008 Josh 3 comments

Google Chrome.  It’s new, it’s different, it’s fast, it’s simple, it’s clean, it’s functional.

So far, in the couple hours or so I’ve used Google’s new browser, I love it.

Here are the things I like about Chrome:

  • the find (Ctrl+F) shows how many matches it found in the page, and which one you’re on (for example, 1 of 2)
  • the New Tab page, which shows all kinds of goodies, like most visited pages, search history, recent bookmarks, and recently closed tabs
  • the JavaScript virtual machine makes JavaScript run faster
  • the “address” bar (which is so much more) that offers suggestions for searches, web history, and addresses
  • the ability to drag tabs into a new window
  • incognito mode – the name is great (the idea is cool too)
If you want to know more about it, read the features page.  Watch the videos.  Download it.  Try it out.
