Journal houbou's Journal: Google Browser (Chrome) - Initial FeedBack
Having just installed the Google Browser, I have to say I'm impressed.
Whatever websites I've coded following standards, did not break. The pages were actually loading really fast and I mean not only loading, but displaying and refreshing. I think they *Google* may be on to something.
Not all was perfect however, as I went to Pogo.com where I play many of my online games and at first, I couldn't get the Java applet running, so I had to install Java, the one recommended by Pogo.com didn't work and then, as I search the help within Chrome (which was actually very easy to use and comprehensive, I have to say), I read and followed their instructions on which version of Java to use and install, but I still couldn't get the games from Pogo.com to play on Chrome. It just wasn't compatible, but, you know, it's a beta version, day 1, we shouldn't expect miracles.
Of course, if someone has been able to get their Pogo games to work, let me know how you did it!
But once they get their act together on that level of compatibility, I suspect this new browser will give both Microsoft and Firefox some rather stiff competition.
I'm going to have to read more on it, especially in terms of security when it comes to online banking, but if this browser is indeed going to be secure, Google Chrome may become my favorite browser to work with!
I can't wait to see a formal release, not a Beta!
