I've been using Chrome since it came out, and I havent had ONE problem so far.
Allthough some things are changed, and hard to understand/find, it's changed for the better!

Who needs an adblocker? Are you really unable to resist the advertisements?
If you have such a weak mind, then I suggest you turn off the computer and go outside...
NO, SHIT! The real world don't have an adblocker, so you'll probably go crazy buying everything
that you dont need.

(Just stick to IE or FF if you need an adblocker, ok? =))

But I HEART CHROME!

EDIT; I'm sorry if this offends you in any way, I truely dont intend to make anyone sad,
I just tried to make my point.

I strongly suggest that you try out AdBlock Plus in FireFox for a week or two, and then try going back to not using an ad blocker. You'll see why we need one, once you see what the internet looks like without any ads.

It's like a better world :) I seriously hate those ads "Congratulations, you are the xxxx viewer of this site! Click HERE to claim your prize".. Yeah, go screw yourself..

Do you guys remember back in 2005 or maybe in 2006 that someone called almost everybody in the world, and they told them that they had won 1 million dollars? I can't believe someone gave them their credit card details, and got ripped for all their money..

Well, those ads aren't that very annoying, UNLESS they are those in which the colour Red changes to Green and then changes back fast again, to change back to green again and then red, green, red, green. Those not only piss me off, but also give me a headache.
It's funny with an older version of Internet Explorer, as those sometimes aren't compatible to view certain ads. :P

Well, first off, Im usually at internet sites that dont have a lot of advertisement, and if there is advertisements,
the advertisements are usually related to the site (for instance; gaming site = gaming advertisements), so
they can actually be useful from time to time. I understand that viewing the internet without advertisements
must feel like heaven, but I dont want to get used to it, as i can handle ads fine now, but if I get used to it,
it will make the internet suck at school, friends, etc.

But allthough I'm usually not at sites like that, I HATE (!) THAT "Congratulations, you are the xxxx viewer of this site! Click HERE to claim your prize"!

So basically what I'm saying is;
"You'll see why we need one, once you see what the internet looks like without any ads."
I dont want to need one. If I dont have a problem with ads, I dont want to make myself one, either.
And I have used adblockers at my friends computers, but I dont want some pages being unshaped (maybe that was just my friends adblocker, sorry if im talking about a problem that is only related to some adblockers).

So I fully understand how fantastic adblockers can be sometimes, but I dont think the lack of it
should be the main reason for not using Google Chrome. I've used Firefox, Internet Explorer 5-8 (8 is still beta ofcourse),
Opera, you name it... And so far, my favourite is by no doubt Chrome. It's easy and really has all the functions I need (If I can surf without a button,
I dont want the button, and Chrome dont have anything that I dont need, so im satisfied). But if I wanted a more advanced browser,
I would definately go for Firefox.
