A Little Chrome is a Good Thing
Google released their own browser a couple of days ago, and it’s fantastic. As with all things Google, it’s sparse and simple, but hides lots of sophisticated capabilities underneath it all. I’ve been running it since it came out, and have had virtually zero problems with it (with the exception of one really poorly done website that managed to hang the browser).
It’s still beta software, so you may want to hold off, but as is usually the case with Google stuff, beta seems to mean “as good as what anybody else would release.”
Think you might be interested? Go get it.

I was surprised how well it worked, too. But they've borrowed from Apple's webkit and the development team eats lunch with the Firefox development team. (They work across the street.) My two glitches: I couldn't log into my Google account from behind our company firewall. The calendar on my iGoogle page would flicker in a bizarre way. Didn't have problems on other sites, just Google. I think that is the definition of irony.
