Has anyone tried Google Chrome yet? I'm using it now and it looks like another headache for css and design.

I've browsed a bunch of sites and they looked identical to their Firefox renders. Anything specifically stand out to you as being problematic?

The fivestar module ajax feature doesn't work, you just get a dropbox like in opera and the feeds are not formatted.. I haven't done any extensive tests yet.

Fivestar is working fine for me in Chrome - but I'm using an older version of Fivestar, 5.x-1.11-beta3. I have some sites that make extensive use of AJAX and jQuery/JavaScript, and they all seem to be working properly. Even my fancy CSS is working (meaning, working the same as in Firefox Smiling )

I've been running Chrome all day, and the only problems I've had with it are little things like Chrome disrespecting my choice of Windows operating system theme / colors - all the "chrome" on Chrome is hardwired to Vista blue.

I'm going to continue to use Chrome for browsing, but since there's no Firebug for Chrome I'll still be developing with Firefox.

I won't be switching immediately either, but I just noticed Inspect element comes built in... it's a huge head start for the browser to have it built in. It's effectively Firebug's DOM inspection right out of the box. Docking it to the main window doesn't seem to work atm, unfortunately.

But still... not a bad start. Laughing out loud

Looks like your feed problem is on the list of "known issues"? http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/request.py?contact_type=known_i...
