Chromes load speeds are faster and memory footprint is smaller. It also streams video better than Firefox. It also allows you to search sites like wikipedia or youtube from the address bar after you type in the URL, and has a great anti Phishing filter. Add in the fact they update it about 5 times a day and it is one of the most secure browsers out there. It does have several flaws but it is still beta. so yea. I used to love firefox but it has a problem with memory leaks and not ending the process when you exit the program.
