So here I am, a chrome addict already. Sometimes I feel that anything with a "Google" before it automatically translates to assured sales and market acceptance, and I mean ANYTHING! Google could actually canvas their own "Google Ear wax remover" and it would sell like hot cakes. One things for sure, chrome's got me hooked for now. But I must say, it wasn't the easiest of transitions.
I was a little apprehensive about switching to chrome, being the firefox faithful right from the beginning. I guess it was all the hoop-la surrounding the chrome release that really got me to me give it a try. After all, if a zillion articles and tech bloggers all around the world all recommend a product then i guess it has to mean something. So I decided to take the plunge and "give chrome a chance" ( John Lenon style). First impressions ..hmm, well...here is a light, classy looking browser that is clearly 2 - 3 times faster than its closest competitor. Any lay man thats looking at this would probably think I'm nuts not to switch over, but I guess my inertia got the better of me ( and my supreme loyalty! ) and I decided switched back over to familiar climes. Somehow firefox still felt more robust and reliable than chrome. Chrome not having any plug-ins didn't help things either.
Well that was a couple of weeks back.Ever since I've started connecting to the Internet (sucky Reliance connection) from my room, I've been suffering at the hands of firefox. That's where chrome kicks in. I still can't stay away from its mind blowing speed. Plug-ins can wait a while, but I am going the "Speed King" way. So, now I've decided to give chrome another chance (Chapman didn't give Lenon a chance to give peace another chance -> recursive chance calls :p ). So far so good. I would say that I am sufficiently "Chromed". Still a long way to go till I uninstall firefox though, but by the looks of it, I guess that day is going to come sooner rather than later.
