whos the girl on the medicine ball i was distracted
Hello Mike
JavasScript? I though teh internets was all about HTML5 now…
very good
Don’t you guys get it? This is for sort of casual users, who don’t really do anything outside surfing the internets. I don’t see this as a replacement for my programming computer, but as a nice at-home internetmachine!
To build an OS upon GC, Javascript, etc…. SCRIPT. Chromium is a big bunch of bull. Build an OS for the Net? Change the Net, and its tech. This is pure nonsense.
I can’t develop on this, like code, compile, link, debug. I can’t do live music recordings on this with my studio gear. I can’t do audio productions on this. I can’t do any decent graphics manipulations on this. I can’t do any decent video editing on this. Yes, we DO however have a „script“ at the root to speed up useless webpages.
Thumbs up if you saw the guy at 2:00 who was sitting on a blue ball in the background
i came to googlechrome from firefox and i havnt looked back its the best browser out there
He’s very good at explaining things.
Thanks for checking it out. I’m not sure I understood about the scrollbar being briefly transparent enough to show where on the page the user is viewing, but there surely are improvements to be done.
-
For example, user could right-click on scrollbar to have it memorize certain positions on page. While scrollbar is in use, memorized positions are shown as transparent horizontal lines right on page. This way, user can move fast between two or more locations on page of interest to him. And so on.

I tried it out, and I liked it. Not only does it not interfere with the display of the webpage that the person is reading, it should not auto-resize the webpage.
I guess what should be improved (or its there already, just didn’t notice) is that when the user is scrolling, it should briefly be transparent enough to show where on the page the user is viewing, and could disappear when not in use.
I’m a SeaMonkey man; because I still love the ol’ Netscape/Mozilla suite: browser, mail client, address book, web editor, IRC, newsgroups, DOM inspector, JS debugger etc. in one app. (with »just-browsers«, I’d need lots of extra apps.)
I’ve been using SeaMonkey on OS X, Linux and Windoze on a hourly basis since 2002, and I love the fact that I can use most Firefox add-ons; that everything renders the same, thanks to the Gecko engine; that I can migrate my Mozilla configurations easily etc.
In my oppinion, THE SCROLLBAR should be displayed only on MouseOver, eventually with a quick fading and still some transparency when fully displayed. The webpage content should stay visually fixed no matter if the scrollbar displays or not.

I don’t know how else I can contact the Chrome Team, so I’m just submitting an idea here by showing the example page.
@nonpersonsdotcom That is weird. I experience those issues when I watch videos on YouTube via Mozilla, especially in HD. Not to mention, I was constantly getting upload error messages for an HD video I wanted to upload on YouTube via Mozilla. However, I tried the same method on Google Chrome, and it worked. Watching HD videos is easier, as well. I also noticed the speed, while browsing the web. I guess everything just varies on the system and internet connection.
@DemonHunter2k7 It is. For some reason, when I was trying to upload HD videos to YouTube on Mozilla, I got an uploading error. Then, I tried IE, and got the same message. Then, I decided to try it on Google Chrome, and it worked. Plus, I can watch HD videos on YouTube, without the buffering and staggering on the other web browsers. Not to mention, when I search other websites, I notice the speed going from page to page. I would recommend Google Chrome to anyone.
@freetrader0000 – very irritating – I used a post-it note to blok out.
@freetrader0000
Too right – really irritating – I just used a postit note to block out the geek. Hi tech solution, way to go.
@Hayley2905 Then why is it I never get them on firefox with adblock active?
@nonpersonsdotcom the adverts are not due to the browser, they are just on some videos. hit F5 and it will start the video again minus the add
@nonpersonsdotcom The advertisements don’t have anything to do with the browser…
Google Chrome is very well done it is really fast, faster then other web browsers, I really like it
Great !!!!
I was too distracted by the background starting at 1:45…
