This URL is not valid.

Of course, I went looking. I clicked on a visible open window from one of the web browsers I currently have running, entered my search term in the bar at the top of the window … and saw an error message: This URL is not valid and cannot be loaded.

After a couple of weeks use I’m extremely happy with Chrome, with the sole exception that the must-have password keeper 1Password isn’t yet integrated. That’s a huge stumbling point, that will be resolved before too long, I hope.
