Google Chrome vs Java

I guess by now most of you guys must have started using Chrome and getting the HANG of it.

Well some of the features I really liked/disliked in Chrome:

LIKED

Faster??

Yeah, Chrome is faster but only for Google applications (Gmail, Orkut, Picasa, G! Docs, etc)

Well this is still a debate, many say it is faster. I experienced this, when opening my gmail, it loaded faster in Firefox (FF) and in Chrome it said, “Still loading…”

Home Page

This is a nice feature, showing the recently opened pages on the screen. Hmm…well it is kinda risky also sometimes, I guess you know what I am saying

Incognito

Google says that the sites are not recorded/tracked, etc, etc. I am not sure how far it is true.

DISLIKED

Java Support?

Well, I guess Chrome does not support all Java applications. Check the pic below, I tried to open a chess game from Chessgames.com, but I got this error.

Chrome vs Java Support

Yeah, the plugin is not installed, so what should I do? Just sit staring at the window? In FF/IE, there is a popup asking the user to install the required plugin. It is missing in G! Chrome

Youtube HANG?

Did any of you guys face this? I had opened few youtube windows in Chrome normal window and another two/three youtube windows in Incognito window and suddenly both stopped working (HANG). Finally, I had to open Task Manager and close both Chrome and restart it. It happened many times not once. Maybe G!, needs to check this issue.

I don’t have the screen shot of it, when the error strikes again (yeah – Emperor Strikes Again type ),  I will surely post the pic here

Currently, I am using G! Chrome for extensive Google search and Google docs only. Not even Gmail…

Google so far has worked on the deploy-and-build mode rather than build-and-deploy mode

Well right now it is fast (so called), need to check the next version (when they fix all these bugs) and let us see if that is fast also
