Just a quick survey. What browser (or variant thereof) are you using?

I use Opera. Although it seems to have some glitches here and there, possibly because of some default settings (?), I like that the program is light.

I'm curious about Google Chrome though, so anybody who uses it, please let me know what you think.

Personal recommendation for Chrome here. I'm currently using it as my default browser. It's also crash-proof - not once have I seen a crash and its process-separated tabs are a unique feature.

It's so light. I click the icon and in less than a second Google has loaded in a new window (whether or not Chrome was already running). I'm actually using Chromium, the Linux build of Chrome, but it's basically the same.

I still like Firefox though, it just seems very bloated to me. If Mozilla can fix the bloat, it would be a much better browser.

I second iTom. Google Chrome is easy to use and it is not a memory hogger. I use the Windows XP version and I have had no problems with Chrome. I used to use Mozilla Firefox, but it was too heavy for my system. I have no complaints with Chrome.

I have Chrome, Safari and Firefox installed, but at the moment am using Chrome. There's still loads of features which are missing, which is why I still have the other two installed.

I just ditched Firefox for Chrome. AdBlock Plus finally made it over, and that was the main reason for sticking with Firefox. Honestly, having extensions is nice (and it's what I've always said makes Fx stand apart from the other browsers) but after using Chrome with the small UI and insanely quick speed, I can live without my fancy extensions. :D

Tried Chrome once. Roboform wouldn't work with it. Chrome will be better soon, I'll let google get the bugs out before I try it again.

I like Google Chrome, it's faster. I still use Firefox, though, because of adblock!

I'm back to using Firefox because Chrome started crashing. Dunno what caused the crashing but apparently it's a known bug.

Firefox always crashes for me, so I use Chrome (also, HI)

I used Firefox as my main browser for browsing and web-development for many years, but i switched to Chromium one year ago. It's light, it's fast, UI is minimalistic and it doesnt crash or freeze.

Also, as a web-developer i need good and handy web-development tools. Somehow Chromium's (webkit) integrated developer tools (element inspector, JS console, performance audits, resource tracker) suits my needs better than Firebug on Firefox.

I prefer Safari for persona browsing and Firefox for work. I actually don't like Firefox whatsoever, but it's easier for work even though it's quite irritating to me.
