    Were you aware thatChrome phones home all the time for every link you open. It is very fast I tried it and dumped it cos it is nowhere near as good as Opera.

    Hi,

    can anyone tell about the Chrome's specific features which are not found in Opera or Firefox ? What are the pros for starting to use it ?

    There is a check box that disables that 'phone home' function during installation.

    It's pretty fast, I'd admit, but as new as it is, it can't render some sites properly (the scripts in Plurk, which I use heavily these past few months don't work). Maybe a few releases more, and it will be my browser of choice for Windows and Linux.

    It's faster than Opera, great, would be good to compare by an example. I've also heard it runs more seperate pieces than any browser. Bugs, well. And how about privacy, security, and page zooming ? Is it getting near Opera and Firefox ?

    Respect to those who are testing it, 'cause I won't in the near future.
