Google Chrome – works great with MediaFire

As I’m sure many of you have heard, Google just launched their new web browser called “Chrome.” After playing around with it a little today, I have to admit, I’m really impressed. Since Chrome is designed explicitly for web applications and contains an entirely new JavaScript engine called “V8” it’s perfect for rendering your My Files page efficiently – even if you have thousands of files in your account. Not only does it run MediaFire’s dynamic content blazing fast, but it seems to provide a great user experience for browsing the web in general.

Google has given a lot of attention to usability design in Chrome, and while it’s interface may initially seem slightly foreign in it’s typical Google-esc friendly color scheme it’s very easy to quickly begin using without changing your usual browsing habits. It’s worth a try, check it out!

For more information about Chrome including a great (although very lengthy) comic strip, visit Google’s official blog.

    “We are so, so happy with Google Chrome,” mumbled Mozilla CEO John Lilly through gritted teeth. “That most of our income is from Google has no bearing on me making this statement.” – http://notnews.today.com/?p=57

    i’m willing to try it out just to see if it works more efficiently than FireFox… if it’s faster than Firefox, has tabs and isn’t IE, then i’ll use it

    It’s beta software, it’ll get even better. ๐Ÿ˜› I wouldn’t expect it to start competing with FireFox until plugins start coming in.

    There is no browser better than FireFox
