I've been using Google Chrome (Mac) full time for the last 10 days. The only gaping hole in my browser experience has been sorely missed Firefox Extensions. That is about to change.

The Google Chrome Extensions gallery is currently in limited beta release to allow developers to upload their extensions. If you are a developer, you can upload your extension here. If you are looking to find and install extensions, please check back here soon!

Chromium Build Version 3.0.197 (31/08/09) now plays Flash, with some difficulty.
YouTube videos seem okay with odd scaling issues and it struggles with cursor interaction on the odd Flash Animation.

A marked improvement on earlier builds.

Google's Chromium for Mac browser is developing in leaps and bounds.

The latest nightly build is a far more polished beast than the one Google pleaded with us not to use under any circumstances.

It's ironic that you can't view YouTube, let alone any Flash, though plugins can't be far off.

I'm surprised at how well it handles the Admin section of b2evolution, with the exception of the TinyMCE WYSIWYG option.

Here goes, first post using Google Chromium.

New browsers bring new challenges and the reliable Perfect Pop-up script from Ian Lloyd seems to have met it's day.
Firefox and Opera still play nicely however Safari 4 and Webkit ignore it completely while Chromium finds it impossible to render the popup window size.

For larger image views I've gone with the Lightbox plugin for b2evolution, especially after finding a lighter, less gloomy overlay image.
Any alternative suggestions are welcomed.

There is another browser, but it's too busy playing silly games for me to bother digging the Win box out of the garage.

I've spotted the Google Chrome Ad at NYT Online and hear there will be TV commercials as well.

As Apple and Google share board members, can I ask what people with a Mac do? Oh... wait in line, as usual.
