jporter12 Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 Been using it for quite a while. THANK YOU Ben for pointing out the WYSIWYG extension, except now I can't hit Ctrl+S for send on a post. Ugh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh1234 Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 Love it! was faster than firefox when i first switched, since FF took a while to open, was slow, etc. I use Ad Blocker as an extension, and also I've got my bookmarks sync'd between several computers by "logging in" to Chrome. Works well (make sure you back up your bookmarks before syncing to another computer, just in case it overwrites the 2nd's with the first. Or vice versa.)Ctrl-Shift-N for the win. y'know, for, um, privacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScubaCinci Posted November 1, 2012 Report Share Posted November 1, 2012 I don't like that when you open a new tab, it comes up with the apps/favorites, etc. I like a new tab to come up with the search engine of choice (Google) because 90% of time, I'm going to do a search.

If you click the arrows on the sides of the browser, it also has your most visited websites which is what I like the most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokey Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Which is the best free adblocker out there, don't wanna download something that will give me spam or other bad shit?

chrisknight Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Yes. I have been using it 99% of the time for a couple of years now.Two extensions:https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/new-tab-redirect/icpgjfneehieebagbmdbhnlpiopdcmna&https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chrome-remote-desktop/gbchcmhmhahfdphkhkmpfmihenigjmppI love the fact that it sync's my favorites across all of my devices!

chevysoldier Posted November 2, 2012 Report Share Posted November 2, 2012 Is it free, doesnt appear to be?Yes it is free. Don't be fooled by it being in the "Chrome Web Store". I could be wrong, but I think all the extensions are free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baptizo Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Yes it is free. Don't be fooled by it being in the "Chrome Web Store". I could be wrong, but I think all the extensions are free.It's free but the latest update automatically opens up a tab for the Ad Blocker Plus (beta) which prompted me to delete it until they fix it - very annoying.

The WHOLE REASON to use chrome is that if you type something into the address bar and hit enter... it google searches it for you :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strictly Street Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 Still using Firefox 80% of the time.Tried Chrome a couple of times and didn't like the lack of control over browser behavior. Lack of options or worse assumed options that were either a pain to change or could not be changed.It's fast but doesn't offer the same number of add ons. One of the prime ones that firefox has is greasemonkey, ah the choices you have with that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 So I figured out how to get vbulletin to let me Alt+s to reply, I have to tab out of the wysiwyg editor box, duh!One thing that I miss from when I used Firefox is a last-tab extension that will allow you to Ctrl+Tab to through the tabs in order of last use, like Windows does with application switching.

I'm just lazy, I suppose! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
