Why people still run IE6 is something I don't understand. I guess they like slow loading speeds and a browser filled with pop-ups and viruses. Who knew

 

you..troll a lot


Chrome is pretty good tho, for being beta and all.

It's not trolling when you consider how IE7 is much better than IE6.

However, this website tracks people interested in learning how to program websites... They are more likely to know about Chrome than the average Joe.


not a troll but IE7 is heavy one ,, IE6 is lighter and better for old PCs

IE6 doesn't have tabbed browsing. That makes it completely unusable. IE7 ain't much better, though

I have a crusade against toolbars. I can't betray my beliefs.

Anyway, it may make it a bit usable, but it doesn't make it a good browser




it's lighter LIGHTER ,,, nothing else

and leonel messi should be there too ;)

I find it pretty sad people are still using IE, period. But I guess they've used it for a long time, are used/loyal to it. That, and of course, anything new is the devil.

Chrome is good. I decided to try it after my Firefox browser kept crashing one afternoon, and it's been great. I can't even see myself switching back.

It's not that it's a hell of a lot better than Firefox, just maybe I needed a change after using FF for so long.



I said this many times, but there three things that prevent me from using Chrome as default browser over Firefox
- No add-ons (specially the lack of the addon-who-should-not-be-named)
- Lack of a customisable search bar, which is the most awesome feature of FF, I have 29 sites I can search in easily, and I can swap between them in just two clicks
- No menus (a minor complain, but I feel the menus are necessary in every program, that's why I hate Office 2007)
Till Chrome fixs this, FF will be my default. When they do, we'll see

I'm surprised Chrome stole market share. I expected it to create its own market and go from there.

 

that made me laugh audibly

Thanks, that was the info I was looking for.

Too bad nobody has gone through the hassle of setting up a way of figuring out browser share which isn't heavily biased.
