Nope. :) Well, since IE7, they've had two different ones, but I've rarely used the search box.

Since IE4 or IE5, you could type your search term in the URL field and it if it wasn't a valid domain it would pass it to the search engine of your choice.

Edit: Oh never mind, you figured it out. :)

There's a bit of a caching problem... seems to be ignoring the site's cache control headers or something.

Google Chrome is the best browser I have tried to date. I have tried IE, Firefox in all its incarnations, Opera. Now please give me some Adobe s/w that runs on Linux or BSD so I can flush Microsoft down the toilet forever...

i miss having a bookmarks bar. I know i can have some up top, but that doesn't hold the hundreds of booksmarks i want. I also like being able to ctrl click on a bookmarks folder and have them all open up. I also miss searching my bookmarks like in firefox :(

An interesting article on CNET about Chrome's terms of use

um, yeah, this is pretty interesting in the TOS.

This isn't really that different from most other places. If you have an art show at a university they can take pictures of you/your work on display and use it for their own promotional use. By coming onto their campus you implicitly agree to let yourself be photographed for their own use (more or less).

The TOS look to me like they're saying the same thing. And at 72 dpi, how much can they really do with most of it? Our entries here are 640x480. That won't print worth anything and isn't large enough to plaster all over a huge screen. So they use a screen shot of my DPC page in the background of a promotion - even as a working photog, I don't think I'll lose any sleep over it.

It's difficult for me to work out whether or not this relates to your browsing while using Chrome, or using Google services in general. I don't understand how they do this anyway, since they don't explicity collect data on the sites you browse. They do ask at install if they can collect usage data, which you can decline, pursuant I imagine to the fact that this product is still in beta.

edit.. M -ke on m laptop is ding... :(

I would guess, that it's mostly to try to keep people from suing THEM for the infringement that others do.
