Google launches internet browser

Oh god the speed is hax.

The auto spell checker is weird, though.

For the people who can't view the Maplestory site, you probably don't that plug-in thingy. Go to the official site (http://www.nexon.net) and click on "download plug-in" (well, I think it said plug-in).

The only glitch I see is copy and pasting. For some reason sometimes I have problems pasting information here. I have to resort to the hotkeys.

I think it sucks. Dang, unless I'm stooopid, I don't see any downloadable themes, and the current one is hideous. Not to mention, my crappy Vista machine practically crashed when opening it, despite my 1.5 gigs of RAM. It wouldn't even load my webpages, and the whole colored addresses that pop down when your typing make it hard to see and are just plain ugly. Not to mention, I can't download the plug-ins it tells me too when I click Download Plug-in, and I can't copy and paste.

Ick. Google always makes them way better before official releases, but this beta one is horrible.

EDIT: Also, it scrolls down way too fast and doesn't even scroll up for me. Have to click the little up arrow instead of dragging the bar/flicking up on the keypad thingy.

Yeah, I gotta admit the GUI is a real turn-off for me, but knowing Google it won't take long before they "beautify" it, I guess.

Use ctrl c + ctrl v to copy and paste.

Anyways, since I have a laptop, I can't really scroll. I think hitting down on the arrow key is a bit too slow (used IE7 [lol] but it was faster at scrolling down via arrow keys).

Doesn't work. By the way, Firefox just crashed Vista (again). My PC is seriously fucked up.

Holy...crap.
You could always go back to good old IE7.

Either Im missing something or I cant find my google toolbar on Chrome (oh the irony). That's mainly what's annoying me with it atm (as I cant just press a button and search right away)... The speed is pretty impressive though (and its a shame it doesnt work when ms is open)

I hear IE8 is released now, beta version atleast.

I still prefer Firefox, ten times less ugly. However, it's a huge memory hog and I have to somehow shut it down without really "closing" it in order to save tabs for the next session (I usually shut down with it running). Maybe Google can fix it up enough for it to be a better browser. I also tried Safari on my desktop, I must say those blue scroll bar things are sexy.

Google chrome doesn't have a google toolbar.
DOUBLE-YOU TEE EFF?!?!?

I gotta agree with a few people here, I was actually kinda disappointed with FF3's performance... It's kinda slow, uses a fair bit of memory and certain websites crash it. o_o (eg, hidden street). Chrome doesn't seem to have these problems but FF is so much prettier XD

In FF2, there was an option that let you save the tabs from your last session and automatically open them instead of a homepage. It doesn't work in FF3, though ._.

Also, you can Google search directly through Chrome's address bar.

Whenever I close FF, it asks me if I want to save the tabs o_o

Yeah, I got that on a computer at school but not mine. Weird, I want that option. (Mainly because I'm the only one that uses my comp and it's quicker/easier for me to just resume browsing where I left off)

Use task manager and use "End task". It works for me. But I'm not so sure I have FF3 yet...

I think you want this, Saph.

Tools > Options... > Tabs > Warn me when closing multiple tabs.

Lol, ironically I turned that off when I used FF2 because I'd set it to use the previous tabs as my homepage, so I wouldn't be losing anything regardless.

That wouldn't help with single-tabbed browsing, though.

I always have at least three tabs open: Yahoo homepage where I have my news, KGO radio, and a maple site (usually SP).

I'll probably wait for the official release of GC, seeing that there are still multiple issues to be addressed at hand. Even then, FF3 still hasn't failed me... yet.

Am I the only one taking offense to this? Reading all this about "when I close Chrome" is kind of awkward. -is Chrome-

Anyway, on a more serious note, I'll probably try it out.

My PC... doesn't have end task on Task Manager. Just a list of processes. Life sucks.
