Midori Browser vs Chromium / Google Chrome Browser
Chromium and Google Chrome are almost exactly the same, except that Google Chrome has copyrighted branding from Google. Chrome/Chromium and Midori are built around the Webkit rendering engine, so the way they display web pages is very similar.

[edit] Gmail
Chromium works well with Gmail. Midori does not work with certain features. These features include: 1. auto-complete on e-mail addresses in the "to" field of an e-mail. (you might use this if you remember your friend's name but not their e-mail address) 2. automatically saving drafts of a message while you type it (which is helpful in the event of a browser crash).
[edit] Google Calendar
Midori does not work interactively with Google calendar. It does work correctly for read-only access.
[edit] Flash
Midori can work properly with the Adobe Flash plugin, but you must alter your system settings manually to tell Midori where the flashplugin extension is located on your system.
[edit] Functioning on low-memory systems
Midori may be more suitable for systems with limited memory and hard drive space, especially if they already use GTK+ (this includes systems with LXDE, XFCE, or GNOME). Chrome is not as "lightweight" but also uses GTK+.
