Wow, I just noticed something pretty cool with Chrome today.

I wanted to watch Netflix while playing Rift with my two monitors. I start up Firefox, launch Netflix and begin a show in full screen, but when I launch Rift in full screen on the main monitor, Netflix exits full screen in Firefox. It's kinda what I expected.

Just for giggles I try the same thing with Chrome. It worked. Netflix stayed in full screen on the second monitor while the game was in full screen on the first monitor. Yea!

Gee, is RIFT that boring or easy that you watch a full screen movie while playing it?

Pretty cool. I've been doing this with Firefox for some reason, the first time I launched the Netflix player (after installing Silverlight player) it prompted me with the option to keep it fullscreen.

Previously, I utilized a known trick - Keep Flash Videos in Full Screen on Dual Monitors to make it work otherwise, this also applies to any other site that uses a flash player, I would recommend it.
