    Guess what Googles created there own web browser that promises alot against the other browsers.... Some more details menna......

    Introducing
    GOOGLE CHROME (BETA)

    Its not released YET... In the posts available all say its realasing today (2nd Sept.).... So await....

    Excerpts from the Official Google Blog Post
    "So why are we launching Google Chrome? Because we believe we can add value for users and, at the same time, help drive innovation on the web."

    "On the surface, we designed a browser window that is streamlined and simple. To most people, it isn't the browser that matters. It's only a tool to run the important stuff -- the pages, sites and applications that make up the web. Like the classic Google homepage, Google Chrome is clean and fast. It gets out of your way and gets you where you want to go."

    "By keeping each tab in an isolated "sandbox", we were able to prevent one tab from crashing another and provide improved protection from rogue sites. We improved speed and responsiveness across the board. We also built a more powerful JavaScript engine, V8, to power the next generation of web applications that aren't even possible in today's browsers."

    "We've used components from Apple's WebKit and Mozilla's Firefox, among others -- and in that spirit, we are making all of our code open source as well. We hope to collaborate with the entire community to help drive the web forward."
