The Cluttered Study

Have You Tried Google Chrome?

Posted by Pastor Kurt | Filed under My Free Time, Randomness, Web Clips

Everyone watch out! Big Brother (Google ) has entered the shark infested waters of the internet browser market. Yesterday, Google made available their new internet browser called ‘Google Chrome’. And from what I can gather (which is not much) they have a hit on their hands.

Let me point out some of the good and bad that i have noticed about chrome.

Chrome is noticeably fast - Good
Chrome feels light (Not Bloated) - Good
Chrome looks clean and doesn’t clutter up your monitor - Good
Chrome acts like it knows your next move - I’m not sure if that is Good or Bad
The Chrome icon reminds me of the ‘Simon Game’ and that brings back ‘not so good’ feelings - Bad
Chrome lacks any form of customization - Bad
Chrome is from Google which means that it (the browser) is probably sending your browsing history (and who knows what else) to their Google bunker in Nor Cal so they can use the information to tweak advertising and search results to make more Google money. - Bad

Their is that uneasy, sinking feeling that Google is taking over the world and they are the mark of the beast, but just like in the movie, “if you build it (a better browser) they will come.”

Faith or Feelings?

We live in a world and body that is controlled
by “FEELINGS” … It is so easy to do the right thing and believe the
right thing when we “FEEL” it … But it is very difficult, when what
God asks us to do doesn’t “FEEL” right…
