Personally, I\'ve decided to avoid it, just as I\'ve removed Google\'s search from my machines in lieu of Scroogle (http://www.scroogle.org/).</p> <p>I hope you\'ve been tracking the progress of SRware\'s Iron Brower for Linux. It would be nice to see some updated information on its status. The less google in my (and probably your) life, the better. </p> A lot of hype has hit the \’net regarding Chrome and it amazes me that so many people are willing to sacrifice their privacy to use that crap.
