I find most web browsers to be memory hogs these days (ok so I have 20+
tabs open) but I do mainly use Chrome for the following two reasons:

   1. Each tab is a process on its own. If one particular page/site causes
   a crash, only that tab is affected.
   2. When signed into Chrome across multiple devices, all my settings,
   history, data etc. is synced. This can be managed from the dashboard:
   https://www.google.com/settings/chrome/sync

Here's a bit of trivia for you. Chrome was built on the same engine
(WebKit<http://www.webkit.org/>) that
powers Apple's Safari browser. Google have now started their own fork
called Blink <http://www.chromium.org/blink>.
