This will be short and sweet today as I’m a bit behind in my work.
Since I downloaded and installed Google’s Chrome, I’ve been using it periodically to start testing its capabilities.
Here’s a few things I’ve noticed so far that still needs to be fixed or further work done.
The first signs of trouble I had was when I logged in to my LinkedIn account and tried to manually add a contact. The interface on LinkedIn uses a flash component which Google Chrome seemed to struggle with. For a brief second or two, my entire Chrome “hung” and I was unable to click other tabs.
Once the hang up seemed to correct itself, I checked the memory usage for that tab and my suspicions were confirmed. However, in Google’s description of the way Chrome was built, my whole browser should not have “hung” as I experienced.
Secondly, I opened Chrome first thing this morning to view my average morning ritual websites, as it were. Immediately a problem appeared on my visiting tarot.com. Google Chrome does not honor pure CSS drop down menu’s!
The first image is a screen shot of my browser with a mouse over the horoscope menu item in Google Chrome. You will notice that there are no sub-menu’s appearing.

The next image is a screen shot of how the site menu’s should appear and do in Firefox.

This is not acceptable Google! CSS is a widely used web standard and I’m surprised that this isn’t being translated properly.
More tomorrow….
