Google Chrome Web Browser Is Great!

[markallinson]

I've not used Microshite Internet Explorer for quite some time now. I did use Firefox but got dogged off with it being slow so....

I'm now using Google Chrome and love it! I'm using lots of Google applications such as Calender, Gmail, Docs etc. and can even sync with my Windows mobile phone.
here's the best bit though...... there's a TDM850 theme for your background! Cool!

I don't work for Google by the way!!!

select themes, then search for yamaha and you'll find tdm mkii in there somewhere.

I'll need to get my finger out and do a 9er theme!

Add a fun theme to Google Chrome to dress it up. The theme appears around the border of the browser and as the background of the New Tab page.

Add a theme

Follow these steps (for Windows):

Click the Tools menu
Select Options.
Click the Personal Stuff tab.
Click Get themes in the "Themes" section to go to the gallery. You can also go to the gallery directly by visiting http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/themes/
Preview different themes in the gallery by clicking their links or thumbnails.

The theme is downloaded as a .crx file to your computer. Confirm your download by clicking Save for the file in the Downloads bar.
The theme will be applied immediately. If you change your mind, just click Undo in the message that appears at the top of page to go back to your previous theme.

I've never had speed issues with firefox, so what else can it offer apart from a TDM theme, which would replace my Man U theme?
will download chrome , to try, for the week.

it uses separate processes for the tabs, if one page crashes on you it will not take down the rest of your browser (at least in theory, it does still occasionally happen). Then again, the next big FF update will use the same techniques.

If you have a googlemail account it really comes into its own, I so chuffed it can sync with windows mobile, now I'll never forget an appointment!
