Firefox 4 Beta sure looks like Chrome |
|
I tried Beta 12 last night. It looks exactly like Chrome. I am not saying that is a bad thing. Just sayin'. It is supposed to be a bunch faster than 3.6.
I have tried Chrome but there are a few addins for Firefox that I hate to give up. I also had a weird experience using Xmarks bookmark and password sync with Chrome where it seemed to hose all the passwords stored on the server. I may switch to the built in password sync when I go to FF 4.0 on all my PC's.

1. I find Chrome a lot less intuitive to use, especially for bookmarking. |
|
I don't use it often because of that.
I hope Firefox didn't copy that part.

2. It seems to work like earlier versions |
|
You click on "Bookmarks" then "Bookmark this page" or you can hit ctl-D. They moved the Bookmarks over to the right on links bar like Chrome.

3. I know they did, but I've never had it work well in Chrome no matter |
|
where it sits on the task bar. Firefox is much easier, just click on "bookmark" and figure out where to file it.
