I know that Chrome has been out for awhile now, but yesterday I finally got around to saving my Opera bookmarks as an html file so I could have them in Chrome. Then I had to import them into Internet Explorer. After that, I could finally fire up Chrome and import them from IE. I like the clarity of space that Chrome gives you as they get rid of the title bar at the top and on the bottom.
Things I did not like and why I’m back on Opera this morning:
- I prefer Opera letting me choose which sites to keep up on the blank tab screen.
- I did not like having to go to a blank tab in order to open my bookmarks.
- The download bar on the bottom was very distracting.
- Chrome could not remember the last file folder I had opened to save pictures in.
- The hooky way I had to go about to import my bookmarks in.
- And ultimately, the loading pages kept freezing.
So my grade of Chrome is a C+. It is almost as bad as IE in performance value, which I am regretful to report. Maybe next time, Google.
