Google Chrome

Hi folks!

This is not really site news so much as personal tech news (but that tends to end up in the site news anyways). This (to the best of my knowledge) is the first visit and first post to TGM from the new Google Chrome browser. Yes Google has entered the Browser wars!!

Unfortunately according to the friendly chaps and chapesses at StatCounter.com (who host our site stats), Google are stealing market share from Firefox, Safari and “other” browsers (like my trusty Opera) and more people are in fact using IE which seems odd to me. If you’re like me – the amateur statistician – and interested, you can read more here

Can you say “overkill of outgoing links for such a short post”. I encourage you all to give Chrome a bash. I’m loving it so far. And anything with a [Java] engine called V8 has to be good by me!

    Although it’s doing off things with my account ID number for TGM. Larry, just out of interest, what browser do you use? Just that you appear to have the same prob. It’s not saving your userid when you log in, so all of your posts are being recorded as being entered by userid 0 (which doesn’t exist) same as mine are under this new browser.

    On second thoughts, don’t try Chrome. Not on TGM anyways. Not until I sort this bug out, otherwise my will never be able to work out who said wot. Oddly enough the comments are effected.

    and by “are effected” I mean that they’re totally not.

    might be why im having probs posting pics and why my avatar doesnt appear on any of my journal entries, or is that normal?

  6. Mr_Moon says:

    No that’s most UN-normal. And I almost exclusively use firefox too (like I am right now). SO no… that won’t cause that issue. Unless it’s an outdated version or something. I use Firefox 3, but Firefox 2 was kind to me.
