Getting the Most out of Google Chrome: Website Builders Daily Digest

Google Chrome

is the name of Google’s very own home grown browser recently released for public use. With it the mighty G appears to be hoping to revolutionize the experiences of web surfers by putting them in control.

Early returns suggest Chrome is the best in terms of speed. It is certainly a very well designed application capable of handling most anything it’s user may encounter. If I had to guess where the browser might run into problems it would be because we haven’t yet seen it run across all the wild and different hardware computer users are running all over the world.

As you know each weekday I post a daily digest of the best articles I’ve found that day on a topic that is of particular interest to website builders, buyers and sellers.

Here are the links to today’s best articles on getting the most out of Google Chrome:

Rendering engines are hard, quirky, and tedious, so for Chrome Google picked the WebKit engine used by Safari, Adobe AIR, iPhone, and Android instead of writing their own.

Browser of the Week: Google Chrome
Google Chrome is a no-brainer for Browser of the Week, and I’ve gone ahead and installed it, configuring it as my default browser. The one hitch is that it only runs on Windows, and I am a Mac-only shop. I do have Parallels running on my Mac Pro, so I’m accessing Chrome in a VM on a remote machine via from my Air. This isn’t likely to reflect very well on the software’s performance, but that’s just Google’s bad.

Google Chrome is insanely fast … faster than Firefox 3.0
Google Chrome certainly has delivered on the speed it promised, and so far testing indicates that the browser is very robust - over the past few hours I’ve been hammering it very hard and I’ve yet to have a crash.
