Google has recently released a new browser to compete with Internet Explorer and Safari. Chrome was meant to be much faster in loading and using javascript programs. They did this because Google believes that, in the future, programs on the internet will primarily be run through javascript, which is currently the most popular coding language for the internet applications. However, there are apparent problems with the browser that has and will keep Internet Explorer or Safari users from making the switch just yet. If a person knows that they are going to be primarily using sites or programs built with actionscript, this is definitely the browser for them. However, in order for Chrome to measure up with its competitors like Internet Explorer and Safari, it needs to fix the many bugs that currently plague the newly-released beta version. The look does not appeal to everyone, and in reality simply feels like a mix of the Google search engine and the Safari web browser. Users have trouble finding buttons or adjusting to the new setup. Additionally, many of the options found in Firefox and Internet Explorer are lacking greatly. Chrome has very little in terms of bookmarking options, the download manager is not nearly as impressive as that of Firefox, security options are complicated at best, and the privacy policy creates more difficulty than is neccessary.
Chrome has good capabilities surrounding Javascript but the other weaknesses make it almost useless as an internet browser. However, if Google continues to develop the browser capabilities it could be a contender in the current list of web browsers.
