Google Chrome

Have you had the chance to test drive Google's new web browser, Chrome?

We downloaded Chrome yesterday and spent a few hours hours browsing and testing many of the browser's features. At first glance, Chrome's visual appeal is basic and uncluttered. Several of our favorite features include:

  • The one box for both: Chrome has only one box for entering a URL or search term.
  • The Incognito browsing feature: You are able to open a new "incognito window" from the Tools Icon and browse without having your browsing history trails left on your machine.
  • The tabbed browsing feature: If you open a new tab and decide that you want two windows open, simply grab the tab and drag it to a new open window.

Since its debut, Net Applications' Market Share has been tracking Chrome's hourly usage that indicate a growing number of users are test driving Google Chrome Beta 2. What are your favorite Chrome features?
