This thing is pretty awesome and super fast.

Works good so far, thanks.

You guys beta test it for us and report back in a week or so...
Are there adds all over it?

It is a little faster, but I am not impressed...yet

The tabbed browsing is kinda funky, and a lack of blocking options for ads....I guess I should expect that from a company that does ads for a living...

Not sure what you mean. The only ads you see are the ones on the websites you visit. There is no adblocking add on (like in FF) but I can live with it for now.

I really like the fact that I can grab a tab and yank it into its own window, then bring it back again. I'm not sold on the tab locations yet, but I'm digging the clean look.

test suber's quirk

It has a few quircks when using forums. If you edit in your post, it looks like it over writes but it does not and you have to preview it to see what you did.

I just tried it but don't notice what you are talking about. Seems the same to me.

Seems to be nice and fast. Don't really see where it imported by bookmarks though.

Not that they dont already know but here are a couple of quotes on Chrome:

When you download Chrome, you receive a unique browser identifier number. That means Google not only knows what people are typing, but Google also knows what browser it came from.

The licensing agreement says it is sending everything you type back to Google so it can better find searches.
