ChromePlus Browser

I tried this early today and must say that it is a fresher air than the normal Google Chrome


Currently, ChromePlus has 5 extra features:

- Double click tab to close page.
- Mouse Gestures.
- Super drag.
- IE tab.
- Download tools supported in context menu.
- More features

Give it a spin.

cheers ...

I really dig this browser after 3 days of usage - quick, simple. One just have to be careful when using Google Chrome extensions (Google does have the bad habit of planting feedback mechanism in them now and then )

This can be a companion to my day-to-day Firefox. NBF and DTF work with no glitch!

And no, this is not a Google browser

cheers ...

For me = no sniffing around from Google about what I do with the browser

cheers ...

"Anyone else have any good reasons why I should switch." - Bait! no way we gonna start a flame war as to which browser is better

cheers ...

There is no reason to at the moment in my office, other than what I stated above - getting tired of Google sniffing around.
