Google Chrome not compatible with Hotmail

 

chromeProblem1

I don't care if Chrome is said to be faster than other competitor.
If it can't display web pages better than IE or Firefox, what is the use?

Yesterday, I found its hard to use Chrome to navigate Facebook.
Today, I tried Hotmail. Yep.. It didn't work.. Sigh...

Yes its  beta. But sites like Facebook or Hotmail is very highly used
social networking and email site.

Personally, I think such sites should work on beta version.
So far, Chrome....its disappointing...

Google Chrome

Google released beta version of Google Chrome, web browser today.  Oh man, I was so excited.

The file size is amazingly small. Took few seconds to download and installed very quickly.

The User Interface looked really nice. Clean. Simple.

Its got pretty much all the good tools from all the browsers out there; Opera, IE 7, Firefox, and Safari.

Its got secret mode (same as private browsing in Safari)

Its got quick box view (similar to Opera)

Its got search suggestion (similar to IE8 beta)

 

I have all of them installed so now I got 5 web browsers in my PC.

Some sites run better with certain browsers. So I wished Google Chrome would help me by making me use just one, Chrome.

 

I visited several sites I usually visit, and it was working great until it hit FACEBOOK~!!  A social networking site that I use every minute I can spare~!!.. 

Sadly.....Chrome had problem running simple features in Facebook. For example, when I click on "comment" next to friend's updates, it won't open a text box. 

 

Sorry Chrome. Everything aside, you have to make Facebook to work before I start using you. Even OPERA works fine~!!

Yes.. you are in "beta".. so I should wait till it to go gold...

 

Then again, I am now waiting for IE 8... I am not so sure if I will try the beta though.. but you never know.
