it's brand new damnit

Right, which is exactly why there's no reason to use it instead of Firefox or Opera. As it stands, both are much superior browsers. Just because it's Google doesn't mean we have to go all starry-eyed and use it in the hope it'll get better one day — I'll use it once it is better than its competitors. :D

This Google loyalty thing is weird. As I said, if this came from anyone other than Google nobody would be even remotely impressed because it's not a particularly impressive browser. :oops:

All IMO of course!!

it just seems that all of everyone's points against it are that it lacks things...it was released two days ago. you need to consider that for the fact that its brand new it works amazingly well. i dont think anyone expected/expects it to take over or be used heavily due to the lack of features but once extensions are enabled and created and more versions are released i dont think its too unreasonable to expect the functionality to meet ie/ff/opera/whatever rather quickly. that is what i think is important. this browser seems more of an example and a somewhat creative way to put google's ideas out there for everyone to not only look at but to be able to simply take. so what if its not better than firefox at having plugins? some features are absolutely better and ff can now copy and paste them into their browser and that is by far the most important aspect of this.

Someone has posted it already, but the license agreement saying Google own everything you upload is pretty sweet, but g-mail also had some dodgy lines and they've not done any evil dictator stuff there as far as I know. People are also harping on about a few supposed security holes.

I'm not sure if I'll use it over Firefox, simply because I'm happy with what I've got, but the multi-threaded tabs sound like a nice addition.
