LiveTimer + Chrome: Tracking Time with Google's New Browser

Posted by Dan Gebhardt on October 8th, 2008

Several of our users began testing LiveTimer with Google's new Chrome browser soon after it was released in Beta last month. We've just completed some testing of our own and have fixed all of the incompatibilities we encountered. Even though Chrome is still in Beta and therefore liable to change rapidly, we will do our best to support this exciting new browser.

Chrome is a compelling browser for many reasons, including:

  • Speed - Chrome's Javascript engine is very fast, which makes dynamic sites like LiveTimer feel even more smooth and responsive.
  • Security - Chrome periodically downloads blacklists of malware and phishing sites, and warns users before visiting a site that could be harmful.
  • Stability - Chrome creates a separate process for each site that's visited, even on different tabs, so that a problem in one site will not affect others.
  • Simplicity - Chrome has a clean look and elegant features like the Omnibox for entering URLs.

Only time will tell how successful Chrome is against the market leading browsers: Internet Explorer, Firefox and Safari. If you're interested, try out LiveTimer with Chrome and let us know what you think.
