Waiting for Google Chrome…

Update: Woohoo, it’s released, and so far, so good. I like it.
UGH!?! Give me Chrome… I need Chrome… If you haven’t heard already (Lord knows how you got here), Google is releasing a browser tomorrow (Tuesday). Google Chrome is set to be a major improvement over current browsers (even Firefox, although it likely won’t take Firefox long to build in the best features).
This is huge, why else would Arrington talk about it not once or even twice, but three times in less than four hours… did I mention it hasn’t even been made available, yet. It’s on just about every other tech blog I read, as well. Anyway, here’s the comic book Google released about it, if you’re interested (it’s kind of long, but a great read if you’re like me). You can also read about it on The Official Google Blog or on Google Blogoscoped.

I really like Chrome now, but am not fond of the thumbnail homepage of recent pages visited, and of the annoying way they buried the incognito mode. They recently made it a little easier to get to with the command line -incognito added to your shortcut target properties. Anything for a little more security on the web. It’s fast too. But for configurability I still think Firefox is tops.

Incognito mode is pretty easy to get to using the shortcut key (Ctrl-Shift-N). But, yea, Firefox is still tops for configurability and web development, for that matter. I’m using the 3.1 beta now, and I really like it. Startup is still slow, but page load is closer to Chrome’s.
