Turn Firefox into a Chrome clone

[VerseD]

Google Chrome (http://www.google.com/chrome) has attracted many from the indie web browsing crowd with it's simple layout and time-saving aspects. This is altogether unfair to tried and true Mozilla Firefox, which is more feature rich and has a similarly meager fingerprint on system resources.

Luckily there are two articles at Lifehacker on how to make Firefox look like Chrome (http://lifehacker.com/5059213/) and run like Chrome (http://lifehacker.com/5044518/enable-chromes-best-features-in-firefox) through plugins and themes.

This is a godsend for me. I like some of Chrome's features, but not enough to leave the functionality of Firefox behind. Luckily Firefox's add-on community have developed similar extensions, in some cases years before Chrome was even announced.

You can have OSs look like other OSs. I figured it was possible.

Unfortunately, the thing I think is best about Chrome and the reason I'm using it as my default browser now is the process isolation that prevents (almost always) a single tab from bringing down the entire browser. Well, that and its incredible speed with Google Apps, which I use all the time.

Still, these extensions and themes are pretty sweet. Thanks for the links. :)
