Poll: So, I downloaded Google Chrome...

[Maelgwyn]

I personally prefer Firefox because of the addins that are already installed and because... it works.

Why fix something that isnt broken?

(Personally I like Opera though - its as speedy as Chrome and has the top results - my favourite thing about Safari, which is only on my Mac and not my PC at work. Its Firefox)

Edit:Forgot about incognito
You've gone incognito. Pages you view in this window won't appear in your browser history or search history, and they won't leave other traces, like cookies, on your computer after you close the incognito window. Any files you download or bookmarks you create will be preserved, however.

Going incognito doesn't affect the behavior of other people, servers, or software. Be wary of:
Websites that collect or share information about you
Internet service providers or employers that track the pages you visit
Malicious software that tracks your keystrokes in exchange for free smileys
Surveillance by secret agents
People standing behind you

Btw, Firefox has the same feature called Private Browsing =P

I tried using Chrome for a little bit, but I still <

Used both - switched from Chrome to Firefox because Chrome kept crashing all the time.

Firefox has crashed three times in four months. Firefox FTW.

I had the same problem with both Chrome and IE. I'm on Firefox now and loving it.

 

[Plurralbles]

Chrome does everything I want it to do(which is have my top sites visited immediately available when I starup the browsser and to display web pages correctly)

Fire fox... is a bunch of extra fluff I don't need.

Incognito mode is pretty sweet.

I switched because of what I like to call "the great exodus." I don't like to talk about it, but leave it as I needed something and IE broke like an atom bomb hit it. I have never gone back sense. that and spell check. spell check kicks major ass.

adblock, can adjust the toolbars to take up less vertical space than chrome, i love the fox.

plus, its a nice FU to google, less likely than can keep tabs on me

I switched from my good friend the fox to Chrome because Firefox was acting up more and more every day. I like Chrome's minimalistic look and the feature that shows you your most visited sites for easy access when you open a new tab.
And I love that I just have to type in "e" then enter to go to the escapist, "c" and enter to go to cracked.com and such.
What I DON'T like about Chrome, I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned it, is that CHROME CAN'T WORK OFFLINE. And Firefox has the Downloader add-on which is great for downloading youtube videos really fast.

PS:
Wyzo is the same as firefox, but with a torrent client. So... Wyzo FTW.

 

[i2esol]

I use both, personally. Chrome with the Adblock addon is a fast web surfing utility, while
Firefox is compatible with most IE required sites.

 

[Eggsnham]

I like Chrome, it's much more sleek and definitely faster.

 

[DrEmo]

Newsflash:
Incognito isn't that great, ya pervs. Ctrl+Shift+Delete was solving that problem just fine.

And again, since I know no one's gonna read my previous post:
Chrome CANNOT WORK OFFLINE.


Wyzo is the same a Firefox, but with a download accelerator AND a torrent client. 'nuff said.

 

[Anticitizen_Two]

I'm pretty indecisive so I use them both, along with a third browser, which I'm actually on now: Opera. It's really good, I don't know why it's so much less popular. So yeah my Internet time is spent 1/3 Firefox, 1/3 Chrome, and 1/3 Opera, except for when I'm on my friend's Mac and I'm forced to use the shittiness that is Safari.

 

[DustyDrB]

Firefox. I'm loving Radiohead - In Rainbows persona. It has everything I need.

 

[Calatar]

Firefox. Why? Adblock. It makes the internet so much more enjoyable when you don't have flash ads flying in your face.
Add-ons provide a wealth of possibilities for customizing every aspect of your browsing.
Chrome does have a slight edge in speed, but I still rate the sheer options available for Firefox the clear winner over a gain of a few milliseconds of page load time.
Looks like I've got 14 add-ons I manually installed, not counting any plug-ins.
I appreciate having every single one of them. Downloading flash videos? Two clicks away. Looking up a highlighted word in Wiktionary, Google, or Wikipedia? 1 click. Syncing my bookmarks between multiple computers? No clicks.
It's all very useful to me.

 

[IWrestledABearOnce..]

I have both but I just click on Firefox most of the time, I never see any speed difference either >.< (My Tool background for Firefox is pretty nifty though ;D)

What's incognito mode?

IT means you can surf for porn without worrying that your mom/gf/wife will see. You won't have a search history.


OT: Chrome kind of sucked for me. I downloaded it and used it for a week before I got too annoyed and deleted it. Incognito is cool, but the rest of the damn browser wants to freeze up and confused my poor laptop.

 

[The Great Zegrool]

Can you undo closed tabs in Chrome?

I rest my case.

What's incognito mode?

open chrome, hit control + shift+ N.
