Jun 26th 2010 3:33AM What you said about brand awareness is probably true. I don't think it contradicts what i said - just provides further explanation as to why Chrome is starting to gain popularity.
I still think that some people (and i'm not talking about a negligible amount here) are using Chrome because they see it as a good product, and because it suits their needs.

As a side-note: I live in a country where Android phones are not common at all (yet), and as the "computer person" around i hear lots of positive opinions about Chrome, from people who obviously have no need for its syncing capabilities.

Jun 25th 2010 4:39PM "Chrome is like Linux: it's fast, it's stable, but normal people don't use it. "

This statement is far from being correct, IMO. Chrome has had the biggest usage growth in the last few months out of all the browsers, while FF remains at about the same percentage of users.
Lots of people i know (most of them aren't particularly tech-savvy) have recently switched from firefox/ie to chrome. Its minimalistic and speedy UI appeals to many.
