      I want to know too. I didnt really like FireFox, but I am willing to try out a new browser if it is better than what I am using now(IE)

        Chrome runs each tab in a separate process, so one slow site loading doesn't screw up your other tabs. The one "omnibar" is amazing (I definitely miss it when I used other browsers, for something so simple.) All it is is a combination search/address bar.

        It is super minimalist, so the actual site takes up 95% of my screen.

        It has ad-block plugin for free, which is amazing for me.

        It is actually the quickest browser going by implementation of HTML5, according to test scores. Not a huge deal at all, just a review tidbit.

        I honestly can't think of a single negative thing to say. It's snappy. It's minimalist. It has features. It's Google.

          If you want a reason to switch from Internet Explorer, one should know that it historically has rampant security issues.

              I've been using Chrome for the last hour plus. I already love it so far. I got the Ad-Blocker thing. On IE, I had to keep multiple tabs just to keep up with my Twitter. With Silver Bird plus, I don't have to keep an extra for twitter, since the silver bird app is near the address bar and tells me how many unread tweets I have.

              Any recommended apps/plugins I should have for Chrome?

                OK, so I think I'm switching over to Chrome now. Just been getting way to many "Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close" messages on IE9.
