Google’s new web browser in the wild
Google’s new web browser in the wild

The word on the street is that Google just opened up downloads to their brand-spanking-new web browser, codenamed Chrome. Head on over to their site and give it a shot. It looks clean and [like many other Google products] “friendly”. I hope the developer’s support is comprable to that...
