• omnibox extended results being very slow
  • whenever i type something in the omnibox it takes more than 10 seconds to return my search hisotry and/or bookmarks
• page search doesnt look in text boxes (text area)
  • probably the most anoying bug for me. nothing is as frustrating as when you are editing something online and your are looking for a specific text or code and your Ctrl+F page search just cant find it, because oit forgets to look in text areas
• problems with flash especially videos
• misteriously closing tabs
  • sometimes when i type an url in the omibox and hit enter the tab actuallydisapears. it seems to hapen especially when i do a sudden mouse gesture just after hitting enter.

Google Browser aimed at Web Apps

First of all: it is a speedy browser with the cleanest interface around. No big logos or branding:my whole screen is functional space. Second: The main reason it does this, is that it is focussed on web applications. Google is not interested in you using their browser per se. they want you to use their web apps as gmail and google docs. With chrome you can create short cuts directly to your apps on desktop or quick launch bar, with the websites icons instead of chrome’s. Where on my quicklaunch bar there used to be Microsoft Word, Outlook and Adobe Photoshop icons, there are now Google docs, Gmail and Splashup icons, and even in the task bar they will come up with the recognisable apps icon. I dont see Chrome as Windows Killer (see resources), but more a Windows Ignorer. You will still use windows and it basic functionality (or any OS, for that matter) but your main work interface will be Chrome run web apps. And google gears tackles the main web apps bug: you dont need to be online.
