    I'm just wondering if any of you use Google Chrome and how you like it? I have been going back and forth between Internet Explorer and Firefox, but each one has features I don't like. I use Blogger and Gmail, both of which are Google products.

    I just started using IGoogle and it took me awhile to figure it all out but I am really liking it better than IE. Have not tried Google Chrome as of yet. Not sure what the difference is between IGoogle and Google Chrome

    My teenage son uses Chrome, he has complaints about it but I'm not sure specifically what they are. I use Firefox and LOVE it, especially the ad blocker.

    I recently switched to Chrome from Explorer and I find that it is much faster. My only complaint is printing. I haven't figured out how to change the size and I can hardly read what I print out.

    My DSL set me up with it about two years ago. I love it.

    I like it too - I changed partly because it had a spell checker facility which Internet Explorer doesn't. A bonus for me is that the header takes up about half the space of IE, and with a notebook that makes a big difference.

    Only downside I have found is that a lot of the threads on this board don't automatically load the pics, but I hit the back arrow, then the forward one and that seems to jolt them onto my screen!

    I like Google Chrome very much. I was using Safari and like Chrome much better.

    I went from Firefox to Goggle Chrome. Prefer Google Chrome, but some of my sites won't let me use it so have to log in on Firefox.
