Google have just released their new browser, Google Chrome (available to download here). I’ve been using Firefox for the past four years, and apart from the odd stubborn Microsoft site it’s been fine - that is, until they released Firefox 3.0, which has a nasty habit of freezing and crashing all the time.

A couple of weekends back we started off changing the style of Dublin Opinion and ended up crashing the entire site. It took Donagh the best part of a day to get it working again. During that time, we both sat and looked at a year’s work vanish before our very eyes, with occasional flashes […]
