My favorite color is Chrome...

Download Google Chrome

So Google has just released the beta version of their new web browser "Chrome". My first impression is honestly Google has done it again. They're keeping it sleek and simple with everything you need.

To really put Chrome to the test though I had to compare speeds. So in gate number 1 we have the classic Windows Internet Explorer, in gate number 2 we have Mozilla Firefox, in gate number 3 we have the Apple Safari and in gate number 4 the new Google Chrome. Now I can go ahead and tell you out of 1-2-3 Firefox is the fastest so really this is just a 2 browser race, but i'll give them all their shot.

You asking "How will he test them?". Good question. I will use a stopwatch (very scientific) to time how long each browser takes to load the same page - CNN.com - I figure it has tons of stuff on the front page so it is as good as the next.

So here we go with the load times...

IE - 5.19 seconds
Firefox - 3.5 seconds
Apple Safari - 3.97 seconds
Google Chrome - 2.84 seconds

Google Wins - Google Wins - Google Wins!!!

No surprise. Google usually does it the best. I know there are a lot of variables in my testing so I want you to test them yourselves and get back to me about your results.
