I think I'm officially a Google Chrome Convert...

Yeah I managed to get my bookmarks from FF to Chrome a few months ago. I love Chrome now, I don't use anything else.

I just need to see if I can get my bookmarks from this laptop to my new one I'm getting today. If not I'm going to have to copy and paste them all in to an email, which will take AGES.

Gemma, you should be able to export your bookmarks, save the file, transfer it to the new laptop, and then import them. Go to bookmarks -> organize and it's up at the top under import and backup.

I'm sticking with FF until I run into problems. I haven't had any issues, even with the latest version I just updated to last week or so, so I'm sticking around. I don't think my FF is slow, so I have no need.

I have heard lots of good things about chrome though, so I'm not surprised you love it

I've been having major FF issues, too, and I thought it was just me and my elderly computer. Glad to hear it's not just me - I installed Chrome this morning and it's great! Thanks, Darcy!

I must be soooo last decade because I am still using Explorer... what is the diff?

[Darcy Baldwin]

Explorer = evil LOL

Firefox and Chrome are intrinsically safer. Not foolproof, but safer. Firefox is much more versatile, and you can do so much to personalize it for yourself with tons of cool add-ons to make things easier and faster and work for you. Chrome is immensely faster than even FF, and while it has it's own features to personalize it, not as many have been written for it, yet. It is faster in part because it runs processes separately, so you don't have such a huge chunk of drain on your processor at one time like you do with FF. I'm amazed at how fast it is compared to my FF.

I LOVE Chrome too! I have my homepage tabs all set up so that I see the same 5 tabs every time I open it up, then of course I have my bookmarks bar for other important stuff and then bookmarks for everything else. Love the search too - just type anything in the address bar - too easy!

[Darcy Baldwin]

Heather - how are you setting the permanent tabs? Right now, I'm using speed dial for them, but I'd love t hem to be permanent!

Chrome has an extension Xmarks Bookmarks Sync that might help.
