After playing with Google’s new browser, Chrome, I can safely say that Google has done it again. They have managed to maintain their “we make products that work” reputation. Chrome is faster than IE, Firefox, and Safari. My initial disappointment due to the lack of a compatible Google Toolbar, has now been corrected. Google designed the browser so that you do not need any add-ons, you can simply type your search words in the browser’s address bar and you are automatically directed to the search results, as if you had searched at Google.com.
All in all, Chrome offers a very nice and smooth experience with an easy-to-use interface. After Google released their Lively service last month, that was, in my opinion, unusable, I got a little worried that Google was headed in Microsoft’s direction, i.e getting too big to make really good products. It seems now, that they are in fact headed in Apple’s direction, which is where all companies should be headed.

But Walt Mossberg disagrees, no?
Who made Mossberg Gd? I also can grow a goatee.
It’s all about the goatee.
Hey, I can grow a goatee too, if only my wife would let! Anyway, I do not agree with myself either. After using it a little more, I see that it is full of bugs or as Walt (yes, we are on a first name basis, we are email buddies) put it, “rough around the edges”.
So repost and apologize!
Just watched Mossberg, he praised the innovation but said it needs work… Overall its good browser. I think he might be Santa.
