To parody Google Chrome’s amazing speed tests Opera has brought back their pair of Scandinavian browser testers, and made a hilarious speed test of their own. They are comparing the speed of the Opera browser to the time that it takes to boil a potato. The video is pretty funny, even though it doesn’t really test the speed of the browser that much. Check out the video below.

Chrome's Unconventional and Strange Speed Tests are Amazing
Google Chrome officially has the coolest speed tests on the planet, and maybe even beyond. A new beta for Chrome was released and Google decided to speed test it in the strangest yet most amazing ways. They tested it against lightening, sound, and a potato cannon, all in 2700fps slow motion video. You have to watch it to believe it, as it is indescribable in words. Video below.
Browser wars, which browser do you use?
Now that we have reviewed 3 of the most popular browsers we want to know what you think about them and which browser you use. Please comment and tell us which one you think is the best and why.
Google Chrome, speedy web browser from Google
Google Chrome is a web browser developed by Google. It doesn't have many features but it does use very little resources and is very fast. It has tabbed browsing and creates a new process for each tab. It also has bookmarks which are very easy to add. The bookmarks show up in a bookmarks bar. The built-in download manager is pretty good for a browser download manager. It tells you the time remaining and the size of the download. There are a number of options for what page to open when you start Google Chrome. You can have it show your most visited pages, show the pages that were open last time you used Google Chrome, or you can have it open multiple home pages. Google Chrome also has a password manager that can save your passwords as you enter them. Google Chrome supports plugins and addons, but they are called extensions. My experience with Google Chrome was great. It was very easy to use and there was no clutter. It was very easy to find where all the options like bookmarks and options were. When I tested the startup time of Google Chrome versus Firefox and Internet Explorer, Chrome started up the fastest fallowed by Firefox and the Internet Explorer. It only started a couple of seconds faster thean Firefox but I guess it's better than nothing. The browsing experience was great. Pages loaded normally and Chrome even worked flawlessly even when a lot of tabs were open. Chrome was great but I think that for now I'll stick with Firefox, because of all of the addons, which Chrome had few of, and because it has a lot more features. Google Chrome is a pretty basic web browser that uses very little resources but doesn't have that many features, It's what we would expect from Google, simple yet great.. I think that it is a great browser for people who don't need much from a browser.
