Google Chrome Adblock plugin

Might work a bit better than Adblock+ plugin as it will require less clicking and is customizable.

That's pretty ignorant of you to say, you should be ashamed. I really hope you were kidding.

I'm a Firefox fan myself, but who knows what will happen in the future? Of course, you being anti-Windows and anti-Microsoft, you just know that all products from MS will suck.

I completely agree. Besides, it is subjective to say something is "better" overall than something else unless all aspects of said things could be comparatively measured. There is more to Internet browsers than benchmarks can compare.

I agree with LPX, The future is the future, IE7 could be the next best thing but as of now FF is still my choice.

I'll use chrome when im on my windows system(<2% of the time) but I'll probably keep using FF even after chrome is released on linux.

Grab the Chromium source code and build a linux version and be the hero of many.

I dropped Google Chrome in favor of the non-branded, open source, non-call home Chromium browser. Combined with Chrome Nightly update I can get the latest builds of chromium instead of having to visit this webpage:

BuildBot: Chromium

Chrome is the branded, call home, unique IDing you, version of Chromium. Chrome is built from Chromium, hence the name Google Chrome.

I've tried Chrome and I really do like it but I just can't live without my mouse (or rather trackball) gestures.
