I suppose I have used Chromium for about 7 years now. I liked the way one could rename bookmarks which to the best of my knowledge one can't do on Firefox. Chromium seems to be going through a bad stage. I like using just one browser and so I think I will be changing back to Firefox. Maybe Chromium's shortcomings are why Ubuntu have not adopted it as the default browser... I remember there was discussion about it some while back.
