Google gifts

So have you heard? Google built a web browser. You know - to compete with Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera and the like. It's called Chrome. It had to happen sooner or later. Why did they decide to build a new browser? I'll let them tell you.

There's a few ways to get to know Chrome a little before you decide to take it for a spin or not. For starters, you can watch the short video clips highlighting the most obvious user interface features of this promising browser. Also, you can read a comic created to explain some of what Chrome is about. If you're not interested in programming, you might want to skip pages 12-17 but don't give up because after that they start talking about the new tabs treatment - and it rocks!

Keep in mind - this browser is still in Beta, so it has bugs. But the concept is sound. This browser has the potential to become my new recommedation to clients who are looking for a safer, more intuitive browsing experience. Go Google! Incidentally..... Google is 10 years old.

P.S.: I'm blogging with it.....
