Google has just introduced a new browser called Chrome. It can downloaded from this web page:
Google Chrome
Seems to work fine so far. I've been using Internet Explorer and have not switched to Firefox or Opera or Safari because they didn't seem to offer any advantages, but Chrome seems to offer the best JavaScript debugging environment I've found so far, so I'm switching to it for a while to see how it goes. It turns out I have a window of opportunity to do some code development, so I'll test drive Chrome at the same time.
Like Firefox, Chrome has a built in spell checker, but the right-click menu does not have an "Add to dictionary" selection, and a list of possible correct spellings isn't always included.
Also like Firefox, Chrome supports ctrl-delete (forward delete word) in text boxes, a feature IE lacks.
Chrome does not support drag-n-drop of text in text boxes at this time.
One thing I really really like that is different from both IE and Firefox is the ctrl-arrow key behavior. In IE and Firefox the ctrl-left-arrow and ctrl-right-arrow keys always position the cursor at the beginning of words, but in Chrome ctrl-right-arrow instead positions the cursor at the end of words, just like Emacs, which is what I'm used to. Oddly enough, Chrome's ctrl-up-arrow and ctrl-down-arrow do nothing.
For me Chrome's text box behavior is a net plus, but it obviously still needs work.
Chrome has some features that are unique at this time, and you may or may not find them useful. The start-up page lists images of websites you have frequently visited, just click on them. Downloads appear easier. I tried it with video, it works fine.
Chrome's tabs appear to work roughly the same as both IE and Firefox, but there must be something different about them because I like them better and am actually using them instead of opening new browser windows. You can drag-n-drop links to tabs.
Again like Firefox, Chrome does not render text as clearly as IE.
