Google Chrome User Agent

Google Chrome launched with this user agent:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/525.13 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/0.2.149.27 Safari/525.13

Traditional web analytics solutions such as Google Analytics will display Chrome visits under the Firefox section. You’ll need to wait for the future updates of your web analytics solution to identify Chrome visits separately.

If you want to see how many people are using Chrome to visit your site, the best is to look into your server logs.

    I downloaded Chrome the minute I heard it was out, and have been in love with it since. It was fast, responsive, worked well when I did have a tab crash, and overall has been a great browser. Currently using Linux, so won’t be able to use Chrome on my home machine, and there’s no extension support like Firefox. When those two things come to fruition, I’ll definitely think about making the switch
