Online marketing, gadgets, business, and thoughts.

I’m writing this post right in Google’s new browser – Chrome. It was officially announced here, via the Google blog. Here are my initial thoughts:

• It’s crazy fast on web applications like Wordpress, Omniture, Gmail, etc.
• More screen real estate devoted to the actual webpage rather than status bar, toolbar, etc.
• Remembers usernames/passwords like a dream – all you have to do is begin to type the username and it automatically fills in the remainder of the username and associated passwords
• Loads Flash animations much quicker
• Gathered all Firefox history, cookies, logins, etc so it’s easy to hit the ground running in a new browser
• Very pleasing design
• Status bar on the bottom only appears when it needs to
• The “omnibar” address bar is awesome!
• No title bar
