| 701972 | 2008-09-02 06:41:00 | I've got this google paranoia. While I don't mind using their search engine occasionally, remember they're an ad agency :annoyed: | the_bogan (9949) | ||
| 701973 | 2008-09-02 07:02:00 | the_bogan CustomizeGoogle is a Firefox extension that enhances Google search results by adding extra information (like links to Yahoo, Ask.com, MSN etc) and removing unwanted information (like ads and spam). You can also anonymize your google cookie using this extension in Firefox: http://www.customizegoogle.com/ |

| 701976 | 2008-09-02 20:57:00 | Google Chrome looks very nifty. It loads slow sites noticeably faster (so far, I'll wait and see what it does after school today when all the gamers get on). Popups don't load as expanded windows but minimised so they can be opened only if you want to, it displays my hand-coded website beautifully, and looks very customisable. It imported my passwords and settings from firefox, and favourites from IE without a hitch (I use firefox PlainOldFavorites extension) - you can specify which items to import. I miss some of the firefox extensions such as UndoClosedTabs and Tab Clicking Options, but I'm sure something similar will come later. And, most serious of all, no flashblock. Looks excellent though for a first-release basic featured beta |

| 701978 | 2008-09-02 21:21:00 | I've just installed it. Goes real fast . No spell checker and not compatable with some of our inhouse apps.. Only imports bookmarks from IE and FF not Opera. Will try it for awhile.. | paulw (1826) | ||
