Jonathan – I agree, that feature is a good one.

100 tabs is a lot!

Faster, check.

I’m mostly into the “tab segregation” feature, so that one tab crashing doesn’t affect the oh… 100 other tabs I have open!

So, I know someone who has been involved with this (but not from the tech side). He’s been using it for the past 2 months. He’s obviously biased, but his remarks are that it is definitely faster, and it has some sort of anti-crash protection thing on it.

And the incognito thing, , really, is for more than porn. Some workplaces don’t allow you to surf *any* site that is not work-related….

WDAMMG – the funky EULA issue has been fixed. Big Brother has been foiled again!

Mat – FF lets you set up restrictive privacy settings, but this then applies to all your browsing. Incognito allows you to have regular cookies and saved forms for regular browsing, but then lets you easily switch to private mode for more prurient pursuits, without having to erase all previous info and alert the wife .

The Incognito feature of Chrome is not exactly revolutionary. Firefox has the same feature and has had it from the get-go, its just not as neatly packaged, i.e. in Firefox, by going to Tools->Options, and then the Privacy tab, you can adjust the options to match the Incognito feature. I’ve been doing it for years now.

WDAMMG – Everyone knows that Google will eventually be ‘big brother’. It’s better just to submit to them now!

Wasn’t there some news about the EULA being crazy? Anything that you browse or write or post through Chrome becomes property of Google without rights on your part. (Including your blog posts).

I think they are removing that and making it effective retroactively to those who *blindly* accepted the end user license agreement – but until they do, I wouldn’t use it. (assuming my info is good)

Thanks for the feedback. I’m still trying it out so I guess I’ll see which browser I end up using more!
