Multiple Chrome instances?

[My_Inner_Fred]

FF has been playing catch up with Chrome for awhile. I remember back in the day when you had a video playing in a FF tab and dragged it to a new window it would reload the page (thus reloading the video) lol. So bad.

 

If you use Google Accounts for a lot of things like I do, it just makes life easier (Gmail, Account login to comment on pages, Google Wallet, Google Drive, and etc. Google is an all-around service provider, although not the best in each field but good enough.

 

So.... Jack of all trades master of none?

Google is pretty good in some fields, they are breaking into a lot of different fields from business to home. Not even going to try and attempt to name everything they do.

 

I do like Gmail compared to Yahoo and Outlook. Then again the most I ever do is read emails, rather than send them.

 

Google Drive/Docs is pretty useful for school work. Lets multiple people edit the same file at once. Google Docs is pretty horrible at formatting. Microsoft Office beats it hands down and I think the new Microsoft Office will offer multiple user editing as well as cloud.

 

Google Offers has some decent deals every now and then.

 

Google Wallet + NFC on phones makes payments easier for online and stores equipped with NFC readers.

 

Google Maps is the best.

 

Google Calendar is okay.

 

Google Nexus 7, love it more than my old Kindle Fire. But not a fair comparison.

I just wish you could open all your previous tabs without reloading everything... but my fix for that is to pull out my wireless adaptor when I open chrome then reattach it when all the pages come up dead XD

Go Opera! Personally I think opera is the best specially with speed dial etc. Only ever use chrome if someone wants to use the internet and I don't want them messing with my tabs

FF does that automatically if you uncheck "Don't load tabs unitl selected" in preferences.

 

 

[EDIT]

 

Provided you have "Show my windows and tabs from last time" seleceted under the "When Firefox Starts:" dropdown box

Weird that some of you have problems with Chrome stability or bugs.  I've been using Chrome for almost 2 years now and I never seem to have any problems with it.  And, I mean never.........

 

I know other browsers offer sync, more plugins, faster page renderings (on some content) etc., but I still think Chrome is the most well rounded browser - and that is especially true if you use other Google services.  I like what someone said earlier "jack of all trades - master of none".  For me it is close enough

 

Seriously, it's the only browser I use (except for Boat Browser on my Droid phone).  At least twice a year I play with almost every other browser's latest releases - and to this point I still keep coming back to Chrome.  Keep in mind that I have business and personal considerations when choosing a browser though - so I have to use one that suits both purposes for the apps and sites that we use.

My brother likes 'speed dial' to so, since I'm at my computer, I looked it up. Yeah, FF has that too.

This topic has me questioning switching to Chrome, this makes alot of sense and is a novel idea!!

Not at this point. Firefox sandboxes as well, at least the plug-ins, but doesn't use the multiple processes to do so. I think Chrome was the first, but it is not unique anymore.

 

Is Chrome 64bit?? I use Waterfox which is the 64bit Firefox
