New favorite browser

I recently downloaded and installed Google Chrome on both my home and library computers. What is Chrome? Google's answer to Internet Explorer. I absolutely love Chrome and will be glad when they move it from beta to full blown. Visit http://www.google.com/chrome to download it and give it a try.

I like several things about it. For one, you can search from the address bar. This eliminates opening your homepage, going to Google or whatever your favorite search engine is, and then executing your search. Just type your term in the address bar; hit enter and go right to Google's search results.

The next thing I like about is the thumbnails of most frequently visited sites. Open Chrome, click on where you want to go and you're off.

I haven't played much with the plug-ins available but I will. I still use Internet Explorer and Firefox for some things but Chrome is my first choice now.
