I know alot of people ask about making the font bigger for easier reading.

Some will have trouble changing the settings on their computers or within their browsers, etc....still having trouble reading the smaller font.

Well, I just downloaded the new Google Chrome web browser. One cool thing I've found so far is that you can easily manage any particular page to increase it's font...many times...without changing its format!

Another cool thing is that it's faster than even Firefox, but you can browse "incognito"...when following links and stuff that's pretty cool.

Anyhow, I'm just sharing what I've found so far about this new browser. I'm liking it pretty good with two problems yet...

I can't get the PC toolbar to download to it

I can't find the setting to open a new tab when clicking links (I guess I could get accustomed to middle-clicking when wanting a new tab).

Any help would be appreciated and I'll continue to share.

So far, I'd recommend it...especially for those who like easy access to manipulating their experience.

PS-Another cool thing is that when you click to open a new, blank page it shows your favs right on that page for one-click access.

also, for firefox users, to get a bigger font, go to "view", then "zoom" and "zoom in". you can zoom in also by holding ctrl down and pressing "+". also, zooming out works out the same way but instead of "+", you press "-".

hope this makes sense.

Yep, that does make good sense and ty for explaining it!

I've tried to repeat the same things you've said to others, and some had a really hard time getting it to work. I'm not sure why?

Thanks for those reminders and tips!

PS-I'm still using it and still liking it.

KD, are you talking about making font BIGGER throughout the internet or just here?
'Cause it can be done here! Too bad the smilies don't get bigger, too, though. LOL
