without a doubt, chrome is speedy but thats only plus i found in chrome its not enough for daily use.
what confused me about chrome
- chrome simply sucks while dealing with proxies and any big corporate has proxy / firewall setuped so its almost impossible to use this in a corporate environement. i have seen official link 100's of complains and google not paying attention to this.
- whats the point for making google bookmarks service and then syncing bookmarks via docs. etc. and again if all of these new sync features can't work for proxy, why would i simply want to sync between office n home, where office has proxy setup......
recently firefox has announced a sync feature and i m glad it really works, helps to remove frustration...
plus amount of extras / addons that help are amazing...
may be if i kept breathing, i'll try chrome in 2011, ideally i think, if google has given that money to firefox and helped them to rewrite core or add speed thingy, that would have helped whole world more...
I've had the exact opposite experience. chrome has dealt amazingly with proxies - in fact it deals with them dynamically. When I log into work via VPN firefox was a nightmare - I had to install extensions to manage proxies, it often didn't dynamically switch so I'd have to restart etc... chrome, I haven't even had to tell it anything. its just magically worked. My experience has been one of complete satisfaction. Oh, except that it doesn't have a good mouse gestures extension... :(
ReplyDeletelols, the day i wrote that, my chrome, start behaving little better in accepting https links (ssl) but still using sync feature from chrome behind proxy didn't worked / sync etc..
ReplyDeleteI mainly use Firefox, but I have Chrome installed as an alternative browser. For example, in the rare case that Firefox is unable to load a web page.
