having not used any other browser since this was released.... im loving it.. but it does have its niggles.

happily, google seem to be adding missing features at the rate of a speeding antelope..

if you want chrome v2 pre-beta do this:

1. Download and run the Google Chrome Channel Changer( http://chromium.googlecode.com/files...hannel-2.0.exe).
2. Click the circle next to the channel you want to get updates from. (go for Dev, you pussy)
3. Click Update to save your choice.
4. Click Close.
5. In Google Chrome, click the wrench menu and choose About Google Chrome.
6. Click Update Now to install the current channel's release.
7. Restart Google Chrome.

* form autocomplete, one of the most obvious missing features from the initial release

* full-page zoom, which resizes images and embedded objects too, not just text. It's important to know the keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl - to zoom out, Ctrl + to zoom in and Ctrl 0 to go back to the normal view.

* autoscroll by middle-clicking on a page and indicating the direction

* profiles are a great way to separate Chrome's settings in different categories: you could create a work profile with its own homepage, bookmarks and browsing history and profile for your personal projects. The great thing about Chrome is that you don't have to close the browser to change your profile: just open a new window in a separate profile.

* support for Greasemonkey scripts (or user-scripts). To enable this experimental feature you need to right-click on Chrome's shortcut from your desktop, select Properties and add --enable-user-scripts in the Target field. While you're in the Properties dialog, click on "Open File Location" and create a folder named User Scripts in the user data directory, where you'll need to manually save scripts.

* other important improvements: updates to WebKit and the V8 JavaScript engine, a better implementation for SafeBrowsing (malware/phishing protection), new code for the HTTP network protocol.
