I am with these gentlemen above completely. I'd be a fan if not for the inability to hide the 'recent bookmarks' box. My wife walked into the room, she says "what are you working on?". I had just installed Chrome probably 2 minutes before and was about to give it a going-through. I said with some level of enthusiasm, "I'm just about to give Chrome a try." I went through one or two of the tutorials then set my default site (google.com). With my wife over my shoulder, I clicked to open a new tab ... half the links were fine, professional, boring, geeky stuff. However, out of about 30 folders I had in my favorites (bookmarks) I had 1 little folder dedicated to erotica. Unfortunately for me, some of the bookmarks in it were recent.
Not cool. My wife knows I surf porn now and again like most every other guy and overall, she doesn't care too much about it. That said, it is a whole different thing when she looks over at the list and sees the details. Not what I was looking for in my first 5 minutes of use. She was definitely curious as to what AutoC was. She wasn't amused when I explained that one. Since she has walked out of the room with a big smirk, I have piddled around with Chrome and I like it very much. Took a spin over to some sites with lots of video and 3d cgi ... the browser seemed pretty lean and fast with rich media. I even like some of the features. But, every time I open a new tab ... there it is, my recent porn bookmarks ... lame. Sure, I could open an incognito window every time I want a new workspace but I don't really want to go through that hassle. I just want a new window that opens to the simple, solid, Google search site. That's what I expected it to do when I set all my defaults to google.com. You guys have to do something different with that feature. Thanks On Sep 9, 6:27 am, Geoff_A <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree. I found information on how to delete or edit recent > bookmarks.
