Google Chrome for Linux
Finally there is a Google Chrome developer release for Linux (and Mac OS X).
My first impressions include:
- It is quite snappy
- The "open new tab"-button is in very close proximity to the "close last tab"-button
- The blue bar at the top is ugly
- Changing the preferences, like the homepage, doesn't work yet
- Man, I forgot how annoying browsing the web with ads is! (I.e. you can't configure a proxy (I use wwwoffle, quite successfully, to filter out ads))
What's yours?

I have chosen to use a more old school method of spam prevention.
