Anyone else enjoying Google's new browser?

Tried it out, I'm mostly keeping with Firefox, I think its simplistic design is really targeted at average IE user.

well considering it is in beta obviously it has a lot of flaws and doesnt have a lot of features that other browsers have.
Yeah it gives me a slight better speed on some of the sites
BUT Remember one thing though Google is recording your keystrokes. So if you are more concerned about privacy then better not use this browser.

Google is NOT recording your keystrokes. It's open source and picked apart with a fine tooth comb by some, you can now download a version called Iron which doesn't transmit any anonymous data to Google (stuff which helps Phishing protection and what have you)

It used to  have a crazy EULA about all works you make, them owning the copyright to them, but they removed that.

I'm going to stick with Firefox... I mean... I tried out Google Chrome, and... I just don't like it... It's way to simple and doesn't really seem designed... I mean a multi-million company should be able to design... A more advanced... Browser... Even though it is in beta last time I checked... I still think it is more or less... A quick easy build.
