Google Chrome is interesting!

Posted by Karthik

Why did Google ‘leak’ the news about Chrome on Labor Day holiday? Is it because the new browser has features seemingly borrowed from IE 8 Beta (single tab crashes, private surfing)? Whatever the reason, I really appreciate Google innovative effort at marketing Chrome with a comic book that reveals the innards of this browser built from scratch. Chrome has a clean, minimalistic interface and things just seem faster. Some things don’t work for me – Facebook photos, for instance. Overall, I like this browser good enough to replace IE, but to replace Firefox, Chrome needs hell of a lot of tweaking!
