Google Chrome: A web browser from Google · 3 September 08

You may already know about this, since you’re a clever, web-savvy person, but Google has released the Windows beta of a brand-new web browser called Chrome. (Sadly for Mac users like myself, it’s Windows-only right now.)

I found that the easiest way to learn about Chrome’s features from a user perspective was to watch the short tutorial movies, while the comic about why they made Chrome by Scott McCloud provided all the geeky behind-the-scenes info I wanted.

The features I found most intriguing were that each tab is its own process, so one tab can’t crash the entire browser; they incorporated Google’s “one box for everything” approach for the address bar box, and the creation of a home page that starts with snapshots of your most-visited web pages. Oh, and they re-wrote the entire thing so its (supposedly) super-fast and made it open source. I’m cautiously optimistic.
