I love Chrome, I really do. It’s a great browser and I’m using it right now, but there’s one little bug that irritates me to no end. If I click another tab from the page I’m already on sometimes, it’ll drag the tab out into it’s own window even though I didn’t drag the mouse at all. This keeps me from using Chrome all too much. As of now, all I use Chrome for is when Firefox feels like being lazy and keeps crashing.

What I don’t understand is why there isn’t a ‘properties’ option when you right click an image. Often times, I’d like to check the dimensions of a certain image and I have to download the image and check it’s properties through Windows ImageViewer. Also, if Chrome could have something like Firebug for Firefox, it would be awesome. Right now the inspect element is ok but it’s no Firebug. One last thing, there seems to be a bug when I type in text boxes. For instance, when I type something and backspace it, some of the letters still remain. It’s weird and I don’t know a better way to explain it.

What about those of us who like to send links of the page we are viewing ? Right click .. send link would be nice. I copied a send link script into my browser bar and yes I know I can copy/paste links, but I like the ease with which other (FF) browsers do it. How fricking hard could it be

Hey Zord…

first off…the return key is your friend!

anyway, thanks for the lengthy response. I’m fully aware of “how to make a new tab into a window,” but there is a good reason I don’t do it. If you have everything in one window and you close that window, the session saver will remember all your tabs (which is unarguably important to me). If you have two windows open, and one is accidentally closed (very easy because they have non-standard window buttons), those tabs are pretty much lost! Only if you quit the program via the menu will multiple windows be saved.

My position is pretty well illustrated in this post on Google’s Chromium Blog, illustrating that they really understand the dilemma that users like me are having with the tab behaviors. It’s a really good read if you haven’t dealt this this kind of thing, or modal behaviors before:

Jimmy, I support you in the tabs issue very strongly. Viewing all those comments on tabs made me disappointed and a bit angry at those who says that they can’t believe anyone have more than 5 or 8 tabs open. I am a blogger but when I blog, I don’t open so many tabs. Relax Jimmy, I’m on your side. But people!! Seriously, try asking yourself how long you will be browsing Internet? As a heavy user of the Internet, I know what Jimmy is facing. Being a manga reader (Japanese comic), surfing through my emails(which accumulates like 1000+ in a month, blame it on me), downloading things from *cough* illegitimate website, makes my tabs flooded. Not everyday I face with this problem, but when it does, go figure. The recent was when I was downloading songs. I just middle clicked happily until I realize that my other tabs is no longer visible. Tab management is important. And for those who couldn’t understand why is he having this problem, don’t ask until you are reading the news, reading your friends blog, writing your blog, doing your research on something, checking your email, finding torrents, reading torrent comments, Facebooking and finding the updates on some movie you want to watch. Then, screw Jimmy by telling him to open new window or stuff. Trust me, I think when you are opening tabs using the middle button, you just don’t bother opening up new window. And I like the vertical tab idea, and here is another suggestion, having two bars of tabs. And hey Jimmy, if you are the type that opens up a lot of link from one website, try dragging the tab out and then clicking freely. It works like a charm. Try getting used to it, it will make your surfing easier. Finally, if I have angered anyone by my comment, sorry but I was just voicing, or more better, typing my opinion.

Google Chrome is a good, simply and easy to use browser but, I can’t send Hotmail emails using Google Chrome. Sometimes I have problem when I use Google Docs with Chrome and I need to open a new page and copy and paste the document that I am working.

What I want:

1. Support master password, like firefox.
2. Provide online service for syncing between multiple computers.
