Not to mention the homepage of his website doesn't render correctly for me on Chrome with a 1024px wide screen.

I dinged u because it's very likely that as a designer he most likely uses a Mac, for which Chrome does not exist: http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/mac.html http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/mac.html

  Mac version of Chrome, from the very page you linked to: "An early developer channel version is now available! While it's not at beta quality, it is coming along nicely. If you want to try it right now, see Early Access Release Channels for download instructions." http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html?dl=mac http://www.google.com/chrome/intl/en/eula_dev.html?dl=mac

    "Please enter your email address below and we'll let you know when it's released." An early developer channel version is not a release, else Google would call it so. Further, it's ridiculous to expect a designer to download a developer release of a browser just to make sure his personal blog is design compliant for a moving target.

  Since it doesn't render correctly on Firefox it's very likely that he didn't design for smaller screen sizes, which I find to be a common usability error made by people with print design backgrounds.

    I see the website fine in Firefox (OSX)

Agreed. While the market-share of Chrome is still pretty low, if you're going to publish work on the 'net you really should make sure that it display properly in the browsers of your target audience...

Ah, Chrome becomes the new Opera for people who love to whine around that they are an ignored minority even with using Windows while they are unable to install Linux to become a real minority. Drama queen reloaded. :)

  Cute, except that it doesn't render correctly in Firefox either. And I'm using Chrome on Linux. ;)

  Except that Chrome uses WebKit for rendering. WebKit is used in least one other desktop browser (Safari — talk about a minority on Windows!) and a majority of the mobile web browsers.
