OK I'm switching to Chrome partially.

Chromes bookmark sync feature is straight up awesome. It's one of my favorite features. The way it uses the bookmark bar is just great.

The closest thing Firefox has is using delicous and installing the addons, but it's not nearly as flexible, simple and basic as the way Chrome does it.

As for my stupid online games where I have a load of greasemonkey scripts, I leave those on FF.

For everything else I'll use Chrome. Extensions for Chrome like XMarks and AdThwart should do the trick for now. It's just way faster.

FF is more powerful, but with Chrome catching up, we'll have to see if it's still worth it.

Chrome got xmarks :) its about time... not in mac "Extensions are not yet supported in this version of Google Chrome." oh well

I will give it another try in windows now. I remember the ad blocker i tried a while ago sucked. It first loaded all the ads then just hid them.

Tried Chrome. Couldn't override the page fonts. So I uninstalled it.
What do you mean by page fonts?

One thing that originally pissed me off about chrome was that it wouldn't save the zoom level of pages. I like to have these forums set as -20%. Firefox remembers that and always changes it, but Chrome didn't. Then I found a chrome extension called autozoom that made it remember my zoom settings and now it works fine. If this is what you were talking about I recommend you give it a look.
