So, I’ve been using Google chrome on and off since it launched 4 months ago. I started using this browser because, as much as I sometimes hate Google, I happen to believe that many of their products are pretty good.
Initially, Google made some pretty confident claims about the capabilities of their new browser. One claim about the browser is that it would not crash, or is at least less likely to crash, because of a browser tabbing system that allows each open tab in the browser to work completely independently. They said that, if one tab were to have difficulty loading a page, it would not crash the entire browser, but would just close the tab in question. This is an approach that the other major web browsers have not yet taken.
Well, for the first time that I’ve managed to make Google Chrome Crash. My Evidence:
After 4 months of use, one crash isn’t that bad. I think I make my regular browser, Firefox, crash about once every other day, although it gets a lot more use and has many more add-ons. I still dig Google chrome but am still am not willing to make it my primary web browser.
