• Speed (actual and perceived) is one of the primary reasons I stick with Chrome.
  • Also, screen real estate and overall aesthetic. Less pixels might draw me back to the FF party. And maybe some actual (minimalist) visual design. “Personas” don’t count as pretty. Also, I can’t stand the use of that name in that context :)
  • Digging the app tap concept, looks better than Chrome’s implementation.
  • All-in-one management of personalization (themes, add-ons, preferences, etc) is obvious but wonderful.
  • Cookie management is an interesting nugget to chew on. It’d be nice if there was a way to convey to mainstream users what exactly is in cookies so they could know whether their privacy is being invaded, or if they even need cookies turned on at all. Might be useful to be able to just enable sites that are trusted and require cookies to function.

Envious of whoever got that internship over me :( Looks like they’ve got some really fun work ahead! </self-pity>

Amen to that. Nothing drives me crazier than poor labeling.

I’ve never been a fan of Google’s “I’m feeling lucky” button for that reason. Luck has little to do with search. As much as I like cheeky copy, that one just never hit home. Even after I found out what it did, I don’t think I’ve ever used it because I want to see more than just the first result. Talk about lazy searching.
