I've been trying out Chrome since it came out and I must say I'm unimpressed. I don't really care whether Google releases a Mac version or not. We already have the best browser in the world, and its called Safari. Without any further ado I present my 5 reasons by Safari Rocks Chrome.

In the early days of Mac OS X there were a slew of Mac-specific utilities and tools, foremost among them being Crystal Ball. Crystal Ball was a Mac-specific campaign manager and character creator for D&D 3rd Edition, with aspects of that game’s system resource document built in. There were also utilities for randomly generating cities.

1. Because it runs on a Mac

This one is an obvious one but it is worth stating clearly. Back in the pre-OS X days us Mac users could put up with (we had to!) software being Windows only first and Mac a year or so later. Not so now. Apart from Safari we have a slew of browsers to chose from that are Mac only and are great. If Chrome is released for the Mac you can bet it will just be a pretty plan-Jane port, not taking advantage of all the built-in goodness OS X has to offer.

2. Because it is what Steve uses

I'm no fanboy (wait, I publish a site that has over a couple of thousand articles and over ten thousand comments, have a collection of over 30 Macs....) but I have a simple philosophy in my computing life--use what Steve uses. Now granted I don't every detail of what software Steve Jobs uses but I'm pretty sure his web-browser of choice is Safari. What that means is that I'm using a product that the best product designer in the world uses day-in and day-out. And I like that. Just like I appreciate that Steve's DNA (and Apple's of course) is in the computer and phone I use I like the fact that Safari is an Apple product. It surprises me and delights me in ways I don't always expect and is part of the Apple user experience

3. Because Google is going to track everything

I'm no privacy wonk. I twitter (all tweets are indexed by Google). I show up in multiple pages in Google search results. But I trust Google as much as I trust Microsoft and I'm more scared of them because they appear to know what they are doing. I've turned off Search History in my google account (you probably don't know, but unless you opt out Google stores all of your searches as a 'service' they call Search History) and have already learned that one of the coolest features of Chrome is just another way for Google to collect information about me. The feature is a URL fill-in feature. You know how when you enter a url in Safari that you've been to before it will autocomplete the url for you. Chrome does the same thing except for sites you haven't been to. It is obviously doing this by querying the search engine as you type urls. Cool! That was my original reaction to until it became clear that Google (of course!) would collect this as yet another data point for user behavior.

Apart from this simple example I just don't have the patience to read through the user agreement, the many blog posts interpreting said user agreement to figure out what the heck Google is up to. Do I blindly trust Apple to not do the same with Safari? No. But I know it isn't in Apple's business model to track every click I do. Plus, they are probably too busy trying to fix Mobile Me anyway.

4. Because it is better

Chrome is a clunky browser at best. It appears Google engineers spent all their time figuring out how to collect all of our data and little time working on a great UI. When I first installed it I thought I made a mistake, the thing is so threadbare as to appear to be a mistake. Sure there are tabs, but that is about all Chrome has to offer over Safari. No integration with Mobile Me and a paucity of preferences are what you have to look forward to after install. Oh, and private browsing? Don't make me laugh!

5. Because it already uses WebKit

Perhaps the greatest indication that Google is not interested in true innovation in the browser space is that Chrome uses the same engine as Safari. That's right, good-old-webkit is the thing that powers Chrome. Which makes one wonder why bother? Why bother indeed.

What do you think, would you use Chrome if Google released a version for OS X?
