So Much for ‘Don’t Be Evil’ – Switching Back to Firefox 4b6
I've been a big fan of Google over the years. A really big fan. I have appreciated their clever interview questions posed as adds in trade magazines... I have really loved and used their Google Visualization API... but the company seems to have taken a turn for the worst. These problems with Skyhook are really too much.
If Google is going to behave that badly, I'm heading back to Firefox 4 and stopping using Chrome. It's not that I need that great a secondary browser, and I just have a hard time backing a company that is doing such bad things when clearly they don't need to. They are letting power corrupt them. They should have known better.
So until I see something that really convinces me, I'm back to Firefox.
UPDATE: it turns out that Firefox 4 takes a little less memory than Chrome 7.0.517.8 - nice. I'm hoping that what I've read about the performance of the JavaScript engine in Firefox 4 is as good as they say. I just would hate to have to move back to Chrome to get something that was responsive. Don't Be Evil - indeed.
