Took me a while to get converted over but its just so much faster than FF.
A few basic must haves that your probably already familiar with but to me they are must haves.
Evernote (fast easy way to save notes or receipts or webpages)
Last Pass (passwords)
Xmarks (bookmarks)
Mozbar

This is a really cool app, but is there anyway to open an image in something like Photoshop from within the app? Can't double click, right click, or drag and drop from what I can tell.
Use Chromium or Iron instead. Same browser, except there's no direct line to Google letting them know everything you're doing.
Lolwut? Last time I downloaded it, it was nearly 10 times the size of FF. (Not that I use FF, but it's fucking massive - although I suppose like a Jag XF, it feels small and nimble.

Just use FF for plugins and SRIron for anything else. That combination is totally the way forward.
The only other reason I use them both simultaneously is so I can be logged in to multiple G accounts at the same time.

I've used Chrome since the day it was launched and these are the extensions I've ended up using all the time.
Just downloaded- looks good (was using Mozbar b4)
regularly use:
Roboform
SEO Serp
Pagerank Satus
I second the mentions of Search Current Site. I have many others but this is the one I use most and it's sooo quick and useful, get it here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jliolpcnkmolaaecncdfeofombdekjcp
Oh, Search Center is also great, especially if you take some time to configure search for the sites you search regularly.
Both of those plugins speed up searching a lot.
