Why I'm using Chrome now, and loving it:

[sobrique]

Chrome is:
Fast and lightweight.
I can stack and unstack tabs easily.
It supports gestures, adblock, flashblock. (JS Blocking it does, but that stops gestures working).
Chrome to Phone is awesome.
Application shortcuts and google gears are great for netbooks. (Especially gmail, but calendar supports gears as well) - I have a 'gmail' application shortcut, that runs GMail offline, with my mail auto-syncing to it. And sharing with all my other devices - android phone, desktop PC and work laptop.
There is a livejournal plugin.

I've been using Chrome for sometime, and while there are a few things I miss from FireFox I find it so much stabler and faster. Plus proper pull off/on tabs is a killer feature. I just want an option for When I say open new windows as tabs I bloody well mean it, no your website is not special.

I've just found One Windows, which does the "new window opens as a tab" thing (to a certain extent):

The trouble with One Windows is that it kills the ability to pull off tabs which is one of the key features that Chrome does well (FF will do it now, but it doesn't do it properly - it reloads the page to do it)

Sorry, I'd not tried it out myself, so didn't know it had that flaw. That's a shame!

Yeah, I looked into modifying it to do what I wanted but I couldn't get it to work. Another key feature Chrome is missing - the ability to disable gif animation by default - I managed to modify an existing extension to do.
