google chrome

if you have sites heavy in javascript, wow.

I've been thinking about trying it. Any security/privacy issues?

funny you posted this today. i saw this on google and wanted to check it out. hows the compatibility with plugins? thats the only issue i have with the playstation browser, some of the plugins are for ie only,maybe firefox and dont support the browser. 🙁

Fred,



no clue on security issues. It is based on the Mozilla core.



I'm seeing some layout glitches here and there, but I expect these will get cleaned up pretty quick.



gmail is alot faster (duh).

what plug-ins do you need?

I downloaded it last night. It does seem to have some potential, but I do see some bugs. I think I'll stick with Firefox for a little while longer.



I do like the "most visited" thumbnail pages.

Does it have a spell checker? Alex can't change if there isn't some sort of spell check. 😀

I'm noticing some cosmetic bugs.



and yes, it has a speil checker for alex.

I'll be staying with firefox for a long time as my development tools play very nicely with FF.





think of chrome being a shrink wrapped, turn key firefox with less knobs, buttons and controls.



I believe the next release of firefox will be equally speedy.



I think the repaint bug when inserting text is annoying me enough where I'll stop using chrome for a few days.

the hype is over for now. I'm happily back using FF3.

The macromedia and adobe plugins. I think most websites use the latest and greatest plugin versions for streaming video and or audio and when they comeout with new versions they dont support the ps3 browsers so about the only thing that works on the ps3 is older open source versions. The only thing that works flawlessly is the google videos and utube streams. im hoping sony will work with them in the future to fix this issue beacuse i like using the ps3 browser at home just before i pop in a blue-ray disk to play a game or watch a movie. 😀 .

no idea what works on a ps3.
