Liking Some Chrome Speed

This is my first post inside Google's browser, Chrome. The reason for the sudden switch is it benchmarked by (Link is repaired, TY Mudslingr) Peacekeeper Browser Benchmark as the fastest. It scored 572, Firefox scored 373 and Internet Explorer 8 did a miserable 178. I am also working on a way to rid Chrome of that annoying sidebar to the left. Greasemonkey will work as an add-on in Chrome so I will look around and keep you posted if I come up with something that will make your homepage use the whole screen and eliminate that worrisome bar.

Google's Chrome is different. It's fast!! Just keep using and tuning it. Navigation becomes easier with time. Certainly haven't given up on Firefox and will always leave Internet Explorer as the default browser. Believe me you want IE as the default browser for many reasons. Just make it so then use your preferred browser. Thanks goes out to Ashy for the great tip about Peacekeeper.
