I’m a big fan of most of the stuff Google puts out, so naturally I was intrigued when I heard they had developed a web browser. I downloaded it a few weeks after it came out and have been using the browser ever since. The final verdict you ask? It’s great! The design is clean and simple, web pages load quickly, and it doesn’t crash nearly as often as IE or Firefox. Below is an article that talks about how it compares to the other browser and the potential for the future. One thing I would like to see is more support for third party plug-ins similar to Firefox. As a web developer there are a number of nifty browser plug-in’s to facilitate web design and SEO which are not currently available through Chrome. Regardless, this browser is a great starting point and I look forward to seeing how they integrate it with their new web based OS coming out later this year.

UPDATE
It looks like Google Chrome has enabled pug-ins! You can view them here: Google Chrome Extensions
