The only thing really different with chrome was the tab placement, and an integrated search and url bar. Not much to get use to, of course GOOGLE developed it, so it would be minimalistic. I don't know what Chrome you were using, but the only problem I had was the SWFs not loading on youtube (the first version), and not being able to scroll downward with middle click, but it's fixed now, and feels like a faster firefox. On my cousins PC which had a single core processor, from a cold start, it would take 10 seconds to start up firefox, while IE took 3 and chrome 2 seconds. Chrome was the obvious choice for speed. Not to mention javascript on chrome obliterated the competition when it came out, I got a good laugh on javascript heavy sites, where the rendering time took less then a second compared to firefox. Chrome has less options than firefox, but in the end, any extension added to firefox just increases the memory usage, and makes the memory leaks happen faster, but that's basically the only reason I use FireFox (which I keep at a bare minimum).
Firefox doesn't set the standard, Opera had tabs before Firefox, Opera has a workspace (which I kinda like), Chrome can actually spawn seperate windows and combine windows, which firefox needs, and IE8 has some pretty nifty accelerator features, opera also set the new emerging standard to do with a blank tab. Firefox did develop some nifty features, but their innovation these days seems to be dwindeling, and the answer of course, is MORE FUCKING ADDONS. Except they don't fix their crashes and memory leaks, nor do they have a sandbox mode, and I'm not waiting till FireFox 4 for that.
If you still think FireFox is the trend setter, just look at Acid3 (AKA HTML5/CSS3), Opera is implementing near perfect support for Acid3, Chrome/Safari (Webkit rendering engine) also set Acid3 100%. Of course, HTML5/CSS3 is still a draft. IE8 SADLY is the only one to implement Acid2 at 100%, but whatever.
Props to Firefox for pushing open standards and being open source.
To each their own, I suppose. As long as it's not IE. IE8 is a leap forward, but they need to start implementing HTML5 regardless if its a draft or not.

While i was useing Chrome (3-4 weeks ago) most recent version at the time, I had many problems, such as heavy load with blogs or websites with more then 3-4 youtube videos on page(not all of them where payed at once) the browser would freeze for 4-5 min and later pop a message saying the flash plug in has crashed, same with flash games.
But one good thing i liked about chrome was the heavy scrolling was taken out with retarded websites with huge backgrounds that where not fit to your screen res. and speeds where fast, the difference was instantly known, being a firefox user myself for 2-3 years. so, i don't deny this but it was not much if you configured firefox on how to load pages.
You say in real life a person dose not go over 10 tabs?
well in real life a person dose not leave a website open for 2 days either..
and i do use around 40-50 tabs at once while browsing certain image boards, and i consider this normal.
Images didn't load well, some servers didn't work well with chrome. while reading manga on onemanga, browsing via arrow keys didn't go well i was forced to use my mouse and sit up to read, which really aggravated me and took the fun out of reading web comics.
Full screen mode dose not have a mouse over bar appear, and normal browsing the address bar and the tab area, take a huge chunk out of my monitor's, i do admit i have a shitty monitor, but still it takes the fun out of browsing.
rofl... freakin ownage frm both sides

thats 3-4 weeks ago retard chrome updates all the time and theres 3 different versions of it
I never have used Chrome heavily, I want to, but I still got my attachments and shit, so I don't really have anything bad to say about Chrome in heavy usage mode. I think Firefox pushed forth the nag-free browsing that IE was plagued with, but I think chrome refined it, for example disabling popups or closing a malicious tab with ease. The other think is, with Chrome, I can leave it open for a couple days and not have it start affecting my performance, which is pretty nice as a web developer, since I don't really close my web pages.
You can't really make Firefox render a page faster, at least with an add-ons (other than pre-fetching which has nothing to do with rendering). However, I heard that FF 3.5 is really fast with javascript, now that Google ignited the javascript wars (no shit, since Google is heavy in javascript/ajax) and can even outperform Chrome, but then I read that Google's Chrome 3 BETA (I use it) can smash all the other browsers AGAIN. It's just that damn fast, but now it's un-noticable.
Well, I don't think the average person opens 50 tabs, muchless, browses a image board. I don't think I am average user either, usually I have 15 tabs open on Firefox distributed among 3 windows, and 1 Chrome window.
Yeah, I agree about fullscreen mode not being able to change a URL by hovering, but I rarely go full screen mode (which will probably change when I get my 25" monitor), and that could easily be fixed. I think what Google's goal is to push forth new standards, faster, and better browsing experience, because currently innovation is limited by the browser, so push forth a better browser, and the rest will follow. Like for example, you can create a web application from Chrome (looks just like a program (no toolbar, nothing) to resemble an application for a website) so people could make like BattleClad into a "desktop" application, unfortuanetly the others haven't followed.
In all honestly, I'm more of a dual browser user, I use Firefox for somethings and Chrome for others, mainly firefox, but it's slowly changing. Thank god for choices.
Mozilla's Ubiquity addon is really cool (game changer cool), but it's not ready enough.

I got fire fox....I know, it was great but so much pop-up's i just hate everything about it...the way it opened...there way it looked the way it constantly having pop-up's saying "Do you want pop-up's on or off?" but when i had fire fox my comp. went realy crap and i re-formatted it.....then i got google chrome and i love it lol it just double-click 1...2...3...open :] it was normal same as google but faster ^^ i disagree i like google chrome lol.
