Google Chrome Version 2
May 23rd, 2009
Here at Chad’s News we have a love-love relationship with Firefox, but it has problems with the script-heavy Facebook site. So I use Google Chrome, with its faster JavaScript processing and minimal overhead, just for Facebook. And it makes a difference.
Google has just released a new version of Chrome. It has a few enhancements, about 300 bug fixes, and even faster script processing. If you haven’t already tried Chrome, this may be the time to test it out. I personally find it to be too minimalistic and wish it had some sort of ad blocking feature, but Chrome has benefits that you won’t find in Internet Explorer or Firefox.

I just use http://www.mvps.org/winhelp2002/ for my hostfile. It maps most ad and phishing sites to 127.0.0.1 (localhost) so they don’t resolve and you don’t get ads. Helps all my browsers.
