I just recently asked about the difference between Firefox and Internet Explorer. NOW, I want to hear from anyone who has switched to Google Chrome.
Why do you think it's superior and what makes it superior?
I want to get the best browser I can, obviously, but I have so many questions!
So, can anyone explain Google Chrome to me? Should I just have all three browsers on my computer (IE, Firefox and Google Chrome)?

Since I've heard about Chrome being in its infancy, I'm going with Firefox for now. Everyone seems to like it over IE so I'll definitely check it out for myself. Thanks for your help.

I use Opera and Chrome with some slight splatterings of IE and Firefox. On the desktop they are all much of a muchness (on Pocket PC Opera wins by a long shot). So select the one you feel most at home with.
Unless you are attached to a FF plugin, or an IE-only website o/c. Then the choice has been make for you.

Yeah, my husband told me about Opera right after posting this discussion. From the responses I've received, I'm going with Firefox. My husband keeps saying don't do it, so I'll just use them both to keep him happy. Thanks for helping!

Use both of them , like me. Firefox+ Chrome
Chrome is anticrash proof, when a tabloid is stuck, you can work further with an other tabloid, that makes it soo handy!!
And you can Use the ''secret mode'' for *uhum, you know what..*
Although this is still in BETA, keep firefox just in case, whenever Chrome got totally stuck, I use firefox
