It’s a work around for adding bookmarks but it still doesn’t really allow me an easy way to access them - with google toolbar they are just there on the drop-down

Nice workaround, but what I don’t get is.. why didn’t they allow google-bookmarks to be used as default in the browser-bookmarks?
It is a google browser after all

Doeas anyone know where in the computer C:/ does the google chrome bookmarks reside?

Didn’t work for me (two non-english google bookmarks sites tried). Instead I found the correct bookmarklet in the help pages for Chrome: http://www.google.com/support/chrome/bin/answer.py?answer=100215&topic=14680

Andy, Bobtron, I like and use Google Bookmarks, too, so I was admittedly bummed when this first version of Chrome didn’t ship with built-in Google Bookmarks support.  But I also understand (from the team) that this would have been non-trivial to implement, and I’m glad they focused on speed and stability instead.

Atif, sorry, not sure… you may want to ask that in the Chrome Support Group.

And Simon, thanks for the update.  Noted!

Hi I downloaded Google chrome and maybe play with it for awhile. I am not use to its opera like features and I see it too empty. I am use to using Google toolbar with Firefox. Amazing why they didn’t put their toolbar at their very own Google Chrome.

Chrome is an excellent browser, thanks for giving tips for bookmark, I hope it will becoming better and better as days goes. If G Chrome Supports all addons which FF3 does than it will be the best browser on the web to surf web.

Ironically, this blog page will not render in Chrome.

- Posted on Tuesday, September 9, 2008 at 17:01 [ Permalink to this comment ]

Yes, that is ironic and regretful and embarrassing!

It used to render fine; something changed either with a Chrome version push and/or something with my Web host / files on my host’s webserver to render this blog an absolute mess.  Sadly, I’m booked this weekend (festival) and the next two weeks (travel in Mexico and Brazil), so it may take more than a month to get this fixed.  Tempting to go to just an all-text template in the meantime, though :D

@Adam : I think, People loves quality of Google and google will improve many things for their quality users of Chrome so we are also waiting for SEO Plugins and Google tool bar updation in Chrome.

Hopefully, Google will sort out these work soonest.

It’s a great browser - but I still prefered Mozilla

- Posted on Thursday, September 11, 2008 at 8:09 [ Permalink to this comment ]

I like Mozilla better but this is better than Microsoft IE.  I just got used to Mozilla and maybe after I get more used to Chrome, I’ll like it better, who knows?  You know how it is, we are creatures of habit after all.  Thanks for the info.

I really like the new Google browser, but I won’t use it for 2 reasons:

1. It is still in Beta phase, quite a few bugs are already discovered which make the browser vulnerable.
2. I love Firefox and all of it’s plugins. Why should I switch?

- Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 at 14:02 [ Permalink to this comment ]

I haven’t tried Chrome browser yet, but prefer to wait until the official version release.

- Posted on Monday, September 15, 2008 at 15:48 [ Permalink to this comment ]

Yes.. It’s a great work by Google

- Posted on Tuesday, September 16, 2008 at 10:41 [ Permalink to this comment ]

I just love this browser )

- Posted on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 at 4:52 [ Permalink to this comment ]

Like most new products, I object to being used as a guinea pig to test it.  However to be fair it is free. But do we really need another browser. Firefox works well enough for me.

I found another (better) workaround for Google bookmarks there:
http://orizens.com/wp/topics/google-bookmarks-bookmarklet/
It opens the Google Bookmarks page in a pop window.

Google chrome is so much faster then Mozilla and I’m not even going to start up IE. I really like the google bookmarks so I am dissapointed there’s no such build in option. The two workarounds of Adam are a bit too round about. Though it’s not perfect ST/op’s workaround is, for now, good enough. Props ST/op . Of course I had already found the button to add pages to your google bookmarks.

This is just a beta,
Wait for few time when Google going to release it’s first professional version.

I am afraid my glass is half empty regarding chrome.

I liked the fact that G sponsor FF and worry that this development will threaten that. Also, I am cynical as to G’s motives on this and wonder what plugins may be added at a later date… browser based contextual advertising perhaps?

Hello Adam, as a developer a big part of my job is spent on firebug plugin, do you know if it will ever be released for chrome?

- Posted on Tuesday, October 28, 2008 at 16:23 [ Permalink to this comment ]

Developer too and have to write cross-browser code (for my online html editor). So, imagine how I am glad a new browser appears

Btw, seems that Google want to be Chrome much more then just an ordinary browser but some kind of an online OS in the future (Google says that no OS, but we know better

What I really miss in Chrome is a kind of firebug plugin (mention in a comment above) that is so useful for development of client side scripts.

I downloaded and used Chrome for a little while. It was pretty cool, but I gradually made my way back to
Firefox. I think Firefox is the best browser by far. We will see what happens though, I might make my way back to Chrome someday.

Add Google Bookmarks to the list of Chrome search engines and you can then conveniently call up bookmarks in the address bar. When I want one of my Google Bookmarks, I type gb <search term(s)>” Enter, and click the bookmark I was looking for. Examples and step by step directions for setting this up here.
