Firefox only gives you three options:
1. Show your home page (a single page)
2. Show a blank page
3. Show windows and tabs from last time (when the browser was shut)
Essentially, Chrome allows you to have multiple homepages |

Google also said its new web browser will be faster and more reliable than existing browsers. On Chrome, each tab operates separately, so if one crashes it won’t affect the main browser window.
I actually checked my processes in Task Manager and low and behold.. multiple instances of chrome for multiple tabs.. how ing brilliant! |

the only thing i hate about firefox3 is that there's a memory leak with the program. after browsing for an hour i look in task manager (xp) and it's eating up almost 400mb. i have to manually close the program and end the firefox.exe process to bring my system back to normal. anybody else notice this? |
Yes...often.

i love how the browser completely maximizes your desktop space
1. useless 'windows' title bar..replaced with tab bar
2. status bar only shows up when 'thinking'
3. all my firefox icon hotbuttons easily transferred over
= 15% more desktop browsing pixels |
+1 |

You've gone incognito. Pages you view in this window won't appear in your browser history or search history, and they won't leave other traces, like cookies, on your computer after you close the incognito window. Any files you download or bookmarks you create will be preserved, however.
= pr0n! :wtf: |

write in multiple pages instead of one with "|" in between, no spaces

stupid... more browsers are just making website building more costly. |
At least it's being built on top of WebKit and not it's own/new rendering engine. |

So apparently Google Chrome gained 1% of the web browsing market share yesterday...
Definitely pretty good if you think about it!
