My Firefox started acting funky a few months ago so a friend recommended Google Chrome to me. I love it.. it's super super fast and I love how it "gets to know you" after a while. It practically finishes all my searches for me after typing in only two letters!

Good suggestion, my firefox is sucking as of late. Constantly crashing and taking forever to load anything.
Maybe I'll switch to chrome.
Thanks Kristin!
I'm with the two of these guys. Firefox was great but it crashes all the time. Unfortunately, we're all on a Mac though so we can't enjoy Google Chrome yet! Good to hear that it's super fast, though...
I've been having the same issues with Firefox as of late. I still use it, but seems each version keeps getting worst and worst. I like Chrome but I had to get it without the Google installer built in since Google is just as bad as Apple with constantly pushing updates and other programs (If I remember correctly) so that was a minus. I used to love Opera but it started to be too much of a beast of my computer that I had to drop it.
I've been using Google Chrome for the last 6 months and find it very user-friendly and fast, although I have run into a few websites that were distorted when viewed with Google Chrome. I am heavily dependent on Google for email, calendar, documents and picasa. Without Google I would be lost. My fave is Google notebook where I can cut and paste tons of ideas (images and text) from all over the web and keep it in one handy place. Also I love the collaboration on Google documents. Sorry that was a bit of a tangent but maybe you'll play around with other Google toys!
I love everything Google! Google Sketchup came in very handy for an Operations project I had to do a while back. Their applications are very wonderful.
Firefox, mostly on Mac. I don't get many crashes, but the biggest attraction (Plug-ins) are also the downfall. The more you have, the greater chance they won't play nice together & it just gets bloated eating up more memory. I've tried Chrome on the Windows side and didn't like it, but I'll have to give it another try eventually.
