I’m usually not one to advocate for more features, but Google’s Chrome browser for Mac needs more. Jacqui Cheng in Ars calls it incomplete.
We have already mentioned a few of the downsides of this beta (lack of bookmark organization, no extensions), but there are other downsides that inevitably come as part of prerelease software. A few Ars staffers have already had Chrome crash during not much more than regular browsing (though I, personally, have not). There’s also the cadre of users who are mounting a campaign against the “toppy tabs” that sit above the address bar—not a detail that I’m in love with, but is also not throwing me for a loop either.
Chrome is a browser I want to like but it just doesn’t feel even close to finished, which is remarkable since it’s just now going into beta but it’s already at version 4.x.
