**** Surprise! New exclusive Chrome levels ****

The survival of the Angry Birds is at stake. Dish out revenge on the green pigs who stole the Birds’ eggs. Use the unique destructive powers of the Angry Birds to lay waste to the pigs’ fortified castles. Angry Birds features hours of gameplay, challenging physics-based castle demolition, and lots of replay value. Each of the 70 levels requires logic, skill, and brute force to crush the enemy.

“Lemme tell ya, these ain’t no ordinary finches we’re talkin’ about. These here are the Angry Birds, the ones that’s gonna kick you in the ‘nads. And they’re the ones on your side. They must be from Galapadapados, or sumptin’.” – Col. Angus, Bird Expert.

The Chrome browser is absolute garbage and those that use do so because they're are Google fanatics.

Incompatible with SOOOOOOO much and frankly.......what reason would someone choose Chrome over FF. Generally speaking, a browser is a browser. IE lost market share simply because it sucked balls and was highly insecure. FF corrected that and now people think they're "cool" for using Chrome.


Whatever!

Have yet to find anything that Chrome can't run for everyday use (I am not a developer or coder so don't care about any of that). I have found that FF4 runs Hulu, Netflix a bit smoother but otherwise...

I used to use FF, but it just became slow to run and slow to load. There are only a few sites I have found that I can't use Chrome for, and none of them work with FF either. I switched to Chrome because it was faster. FF may have fixed this issue, but I see no need to change back. I am not a fanboy of anything. Besides, Chrome is also the most secure browser right now.

Chrome is to open for tracking by Google and is a resource hog for that reason. FF4 is much faster now but on initial relase was weak for security. Both can't handle all sites well I've had to use IE or Avant many times since GC nor FF wouldn't work properly. If I want to use Chrome I use Iron instead it is much better for not tracking your evey move and isn't running tons of stuff.

I don't beleive Chrome is the most secure browser based on the test group your basing that on.

i "upgraded" to firefox 4 for a minute, but it just seemed to break things that were working fine in ff3 and be different just for the sake of being different. "downgraded" back to ff3 and I'm much happier.

I might try chrome later, sometimes it's good to leave well enough alone, though.

incidentally, i saw some angry birds plush toys in the local japanese supermarket... i want one! :)
