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.”
