Comment #6 on issue 8742 by nathanbrauer: Chrome should provide a simpler means for developers to clear the browser cache and set cache policy http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=8742
Yes, I know I can use incognito, but most grandma's don't know that. And especially here in places like Vietnam (where people think that pressing Refresh repeatedly on your desktop helps Windows load drivers faster), some people are stuck in their conventional ways. We should be making it easier for people, even those who don't ever try to learn what incognito is. Personally, I use incognito when I want to sign in to multiple accounts on Facebook/Gmail/etc without signing out of A, signing in to B, signing out of B, and signing in to A again. Also just being able to clear the browser's cache any time you update an avatar or something is very helpful. I just changed my Gravatar and nothing worked to reload the image. Not CTRL+R, CTRL+F5, SHIFT+R/F5, etc, nothing. I had to hunt for how to clear the cache. As a developer, I would love to have an actual button next to the wrench and the page icons that did nothing but clear the cache. But that wouldn't be for all users. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
