Second Impressions of Google Chrome

I have been using Google's new browser for over a week now and I still like it. It is definitely faster than Firefox and less cluttered than any of the other browsers. My main problems with it are that there are few toolbars that work with it yet - it is only in beta form as yet - but I am really surprised that you can't attach a Google toolbar to it.

The best things so far are the address bar that works both as an address bar as well as a search box offering intelligent suggestions and its memory of one's recently visited sites when clicking the plus icon on the tabs bar.

The let-downs are the absence of toolbars and other useful programs attachable to other browsers such as Robotform. Only time will tell how quickly these issues are addressed but I am sticking with it for the next month.
