  Google Chrome Misses the Mark

Posted by: Will Strohl 9/2/2008
Google traditionally has raised the bar for software developers. But with its release of its new web browser, "Chrome", they failed a few things right out of the gate with me.

Google Chrome was released today.  It is Google's new web browser.  I have been using it most of the day and night since it was released.  Overall, I must say that I like it a lot.  It is based on the Apple Kit and FireFox, so the experience is appropriately similar to the experience of Safari (in speed) and FireFox (in rendering). 

I have just a few gripes for this release:

  1. I am used to and demand the ability of being able to granularly set my security settings. It you can in Chrome, it is not easily found.
  2. The widely used and very popular fckEditor does not render.
  3. Many of the styles in my stylesheets are overridden for some reason.  I have seen this mostly in links so far.
