I don't usually do this, but I'm trying out the beta for Google's new browser, Chrome.  It's really freakin' fast.  So far, I find it's using a lot less resources than Firefox 3 (or 2 for that matter), but I miss the apps I had.  Facebook toolbar and Auto-Refresh GET!

Just thought I'd say that much before sleep consumes me.

    I was wondering what that mode was for, people tried to explain it to me, but I wasn't seeing the purpose for a while until it dawned on me.

    The speed boost is definitely helpful, except for on pages that have saved passwords on them.  Their script for that is ridiculously slow compared to Firefox, and Firefox does it the moment the page completely loads.  A lot of publications and tech blogs are slamming Chrome for being a beta, and then claim that nothing Google offers ever leaves the beta stage, but that's because they're so confident with their product at an unfinished level, they want to share it as such.  Gmail is such an example (it's still in beta), and that's my main email client now.  I hardly use "Hotmail" or Windows Live Mail for much of anything.
