Ranting Kenya

I may have pointed out that the Google Chrome browser has some issues with the ACID 2 test, but here’s something really good about it. For at least some sites (like webmail), it is super fast. Firefox 3 is a fast browser, but this is something else altogether for some types of sites. It is as close to instantaneous as you can be.

Also, so far, I’ve had no plugin’s to add (such as flash). I could goto youtube right away and watch a video without the need to install something to view flash videos. Awesome. Maybe it’s because it’s using a plugin that I’ve already installed on another browser, but nonetheless, I appreciate that.

Well, what’s the first thing I tried after downloading Google chrome? The ACID 2 test of course. And how did the new browser fair? Interesting quesion.

This is the screenshot I took. The errors changed based on how large my browser window was. Also, if I waited long enough (like 60 seconds or something), it would create the proper image.

As per most Google products, it’s a beta so I’m sure this will all be fixed soon enough.
