I find the web developer toolkit extension in FF pretty invaluable in my day-to-day work, and of course firebug too.
If chrome had those type of extensions I would switch.

yep... thanks Mozilla the 3.6.7 update makes this such a bloated slow pile of shit that I have no choice but to use something that actually works.
Good job. Way to continuously improve your product.
Oh wait, you did the opposite. You took a good things and made it shitty.
Well done, you.

Chrome is excellent. However, each tab is a new process and I find it's starting to hang with about 16 tabs.

Chrome is excellent and blindingly fast. I have Firebug and Web Dev (not as good as FF versions) on Chrome, so its almost good enough for web work.
Otherwise best browser to date, bye bye FF.

Safari "should" be better but I find myself not using it. Something about the interface seems too metallic, or maybe it's just that Chrome is that tiny bit faster.
I think the difference between Chrome and other browsers show how small optimizations in speed can make a big difference in user experience. I wish, say, Adobe would apply the same stripped down philosophy to their software.

As soon as Chrome got the Delicious toolbar, i will switch.

I have switched to Chrome while ago for daily browsing. I still use FF while doing front-end development only because of the FireBug. There is built-in web inspector in Chrome and FirebugLite but I think they can't compete with FireBug.
What I wrote above applies whenever I'm using OSX or Win.I will not be surprised if IE9 will be better than FF. The FF dev team lost their direction...

just switched to chrome. 3x faster. wish it had the 'smart bookmarks bar' extensions where you see only favicons in the bookmarks bar (With text on rollover)

How the hell can they honestly not know that THIS many people are shitting on their product? And I'm positive it's not just relegated to this forum.
I've hated FF for a while now. The fucker takes about 1 full minute to start, where safari takes only a few seconds.
All of the inroads I'd seen made at companies that were adopting FF instead of IE are wasted – it's basically IE now, the pile of shite.
