Internet Stuff


Web Browsers


Well ofcorse google's Google Chrome takes the cake as far as web broswers go, its amazing, i upgraded from Firefox because ofcorse i hate Internet Explorer, mainly on Vista computers which i dont buy anymore so i can avoid that combo atleast. Anyways after i upgraded it instantly took all my information from firefox, recently visted websites, bookmarks, folders, everything! then to top it off it has the coolest new tab homepage ever! ive always wanted to be able to customize my own new tab page but now i dont need to because this is exactly what i would of done! what it does is has a series of icons that look like print screens of the most recent websites that you visit all the time and puts them right there for you to click once you open a new tab. i dont know about you but this
is like the greatest gift ever to me, this alone made me put Google Chrome as my Default Browser. They Also Offer a Incognito Mode.. 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.
incase your doing someting you dont want people to know about.

Shown above is another great feature, a completely customizeable bookmarks bar right underneather where you type in url's, notice thats the only thing up there besides tabs and a one click add to avorites button (The Star) and the standard refresh, back, and foreward. This bar comes with a bunch of
book marts automatically added but you can delete them all to make it look like mine, then add your own, you can even add whole folders! This is what I customized mine to look like in a matter of seconds. . .

And of course me being a big fan of the quick launch bar, once you download google chrome you have the option of adding gmail to the quick launch bar on your start menu which I find insanely handy. Hers how much I love quick launch:
And now for my Favorite Part! Instead of a blank screen when you open a new tab, google build a custom new tab page for you that shows screenshots of your most recent websites as well as some other google features. here is what it looks like


Besides that it’s a very basic web browser, which
is defiantly a good thing! I highly recommend it to everyone!
