Firefox vs. Chrome


I’m currently trying out the Chrome browser from Google. Very nice so far, however, pros and cons for each so far are:

Firefox:
Pros–

  • TwitterFox
  • Delicious
  • Ubiquity
  • ScribeFire

Cons–

  • Memory hog.

Chrome:
Pros–

  • Pretty (in a minimalist sort of way)
  • Fast
  • Relatively lightweight (in a 2008 application sense, not in an absolute program sense)
  • Special about: pages

Cons–

  • Looks like some Facebook functionality does not work. I think mostly involving Facebook apps.
  • Fails to render secure sites that are lost in the IE vs. Netscape 4.x days. Wouldn’t be a huge downside if I didn’t actually know of one that I use regularly.
