Google Chrome

Well, google takes another step towards internet domination releasing their own web browser:

Google Chrome - Download a new browser

It's fast. Like really, really fast. It's also based on Webkit so don't freak out about having to develop for yet ANOTHER browser. For being released today, this show a lot of promise. I'll probably end up using Firefox for now, but once they get an ad-block I'll come back to it.

I've been poking around on Chrome for a bit and it seems pretty solid. I'm just glad that I don't have to worry about even more browser specific development.
I look forward to seeing how this bowser competes with the others. Maybe it will help convert all the ie lovers

Looks good. I use Firefox but lately it has really slowed down in regard to loading pages. I was convinced it was malware but Ive run just about every scan out there and cleared all the temp files, caches etc... and I'm clean. Also tweaked my Firefox config file for speed which helped marginally. Might be worth a try for me.
