Chrome is a web browser put out by Google which has a particular interest in recording everything one does on the net as they are a advertising company and sell your information to others for a profit.
Google has a lot of free stuff, but it's used to data mine.
I use Firefox for it's huge amount of add-ons, especially No-Script (which only Firefox has) which is the best web defense against malicious websites you can get.
Firefox is more of a "users" browser, it's highly customizable and there are add-ons to do all sorts of things.
I don't use Safari because Apple doesn't pay enough attention to it giving people choice, forces you it do it "their way" and is just depressingly gray.
On Windows Safari is the browser that comes in LAST place, on Windows Firefox is the browser that comes in first place, although Chrome is a close second.
On Mac's Safari is king, just like IE is still king on Windows because it's bundled with OS X.
Safari is also the fastest on OS X, because Apple provides Safari with a little extra OS X horsepower API's that other browsers don't have access too.
So for speed Safari is fastest on Mac's, but for most user choice and control, Firefox is king.
I'm older and hard of seeing so I need to be able to scale my web pages and the font size of the browser itself, I can do that with Firefox and not with Safari.
Also you can see I choose a persona that gives a lot of contrast for the type, white and black show well on the light blue, as it's hard to see the black on the grey of Safari.
Why Apple is in love with grey so much is beyond me. It's depressing.
Yeah because someone would need to be crazy or bored to tears experimenting with a new browser.. Heaven forbid they may simply be... CURIOUS??. Gosh, if the whole world was like you we'd just have one kind of everything,
why? for mac is better Safari!
if you have some problem with safari
google chrome is just a web browser like Safari. I love it and it is my default web browser, I never use Safari unless I have to. Chrome is just as safe as Safari.
Just checking they are both just as safe as safari rite?
I wouldn't use either and neither would anyone else if they weren't 🙂
what do u mean?
yeh true. And is google chrome is fast as safari cos safari is heaps faster than internet explorer
If I didn't feel Chrome was safe, I wouldn't use it.
Internet Explorer hasnt been suppoted for mac in maybe 7 years or more. Don't use it.
K well i mite try it then. (google chrome)
DOES IT have private browsing?
And is its private browsing as good as safaris
It has private browsing..it is called "incognito". I am not sure how it stacks up against Safari's private browsing, but it is alt least comparable.
I use it on all my computer operating system. OS X, Windows and Linux. Just wish they had chrome for Android.
ok, so you can download chrome here for mac

I agree with you completely and that's why I stick with Firefox as my browser of choice. I thinnk Safari is ugly. Period.
