Oh wow...
Chrome sucks IMO , too plain looking.
Ever heard of themes? My theme is black with textured orange for the most part, and the new tab page is a skeleton on fire smashing a guitar on a speaker. High res high quality too. Tell me that's 'plain looking'.
To be honest, I just uninstalled Chrome a few days ago. I do not like it at all. I'm back to IE9.
The scrolling is so much smoother with IE compared to Chrome. I read a lot on the internet so smooth scrolling is very important to me. It was the look of Chrome that got me using it.
Again, there a plugin for that. Smoothscroll I think its called. I also have it. Works great.
Seriously guys it's not hard to figure this stuff out.
Oh and to the guy who said he just reloads his 100+ tabs when mozilla crashes, no need for that in chrome. Each tab is a seperate process, so if something crashes, all is not lost. Secondly, chrome has its own task manager to end said process(es). Apparently IE runs seperate processes, but uhh.. it's still IE.
Not 100% sure about mozilla but chrome also has this 'create application shortcuts' tool which I use. Basically it makes the page you are viewing an app via a shortcut on your desktop. This is good for, say, checking your bank account online with a simple double click, rather than going into your browser and clicking bookmarks.
So that's just a few things that I use anyway..
