I haven’t played with it too much yet, but is this a replacement for FireFox?  My friend Pete (Yettas) claims it’s extremely fast, which is the biggest complaint I hear about FF.

March ’09 Update:  Aside from the questionable first sentence of this blog post it’s now 6 months later and I’m still loyal to FireFox.  I use Chrome when surfing Facebook or Hulu, but for the most part I always have FireFox open.  The addins are most helpful, (PageRank, proxy changing,  “FoxMarks”) and until Chrome can import those, I suspect I’ll continue using FireFox as my default, and Chrome when I want the sleek, fast UI for large media files.
