Chrome did not see my Firefox 3.01 so did not offer to import bookmarks. Don't expect support here on a 2 day old beta, so am just mentioning it for info. I have submitted it to google. I found a few other people on the web with the same problem, so presumably it will be solved as the Beta advances.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh, heh - if we're counting that way, I have 97 tabs open.

ION, I'm running Google Chrome right now AIFG!

It did for me.

Yeah it does for most people. I'm one of the tiny percentage it doesn't. Which is why it is up to google to figure out what is going on, though I'll be glad to answer configuration questions for them if they ask.

[And it still doesn't if I use the "import bookmarks" option in the toolbar.]

Coding and Sleeping

I've tried Chrome and found myself reaching back for Firefox. I think it has real potential though, especially the idea of running web apps in their own windows to mimic desktop applications. I can see myself using Chrome for websites are that are application like while still using Firefox for browsing websites that are web like.

Our wings are not tired.

It imported my bookmarks, but isn't running all my sites properly. Will test some more before I make a big switch.

This is the least of the problems with this, but shouldn't it be "smote" or perhaps "Smited", not "smitten"?

I'm pretty sure it's being used correctly. The romantic connotation comes from the idea of being struck by a feeling instead of by a lightning bolt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, my dictionary does say "smitten or smote."

Want OS X Chrome.

I read this as "Want OS X chromosome" at first and was wondering if that was the Cylon gene.

Hey, could people maybe stop being assish about the company that Jilli and I work for? Jesus fucking Christ, I mean I had to unsub from the tech thread because of the constant irritation of the gleeful bashing was making me want to hit people. I don't especially dig seeing it in Natter.
