In a surprise move Google just launched there new browser Chrome. The word meaning “photographic transparency”. Google Chrome is an open source browser which is quite interesting and looks & feels allot like Apple’s Safar. They have done a nice job and i think i might be the one who would betray firefox and switch to Google chrome reason being they build a very simple yet elegant browser which is fast does not take much of the computer resources and of course is fitted with some of the great and very important features required in browsers for this era.

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. 

So people what are you waiting for jump in and try out Google Chrome, its download link is on and you can simply download Google Crome from here. It will import all your web settings, history , passwords so no need to give it a second thought.

8 things that i loved about Google’s Chrome

1. Its supper fast yes even faster then Mozilla, actually it looks & feels allot like Apple safari even its rendering engine is webKit which is used by Safari.
2. The default page is not Google.com or MSN.com or mozilla.com like most browsers who promote there crab for the sake of it, rather its a usefull page that shows thumbnails of your most recent and most visited websites nice…
3. It helps you create application shortcuts which is one kool feature my most fav i.e. you can make shortcut of any website on your desktop for e.g. go to gmail create application shortcut using chrome on your quick launch or desktop and when you open that shortcut gmail will open showing your inbox… really nice check it out how to do it
4. Stealth mode browsing, dont want to keep history or any record of the websites you visit then browse in incognito Mode, no records no history all stealth.
5. Web history & Bookmark manager suck in most browser either they are jumbled up in a side bar or a pop up loved they way Google presents it simply nice.
6. Try downloading from Chrome or visit the Download history page rest you will know why you love it.
7. All my websites works perfectly in Google Chrome, if you website works fine in Safari it will work fine in Chrome, also they support validation and w3c which they mentioned in FAQ if your website is not working fine.
8. Chrome website inspector study the code & markup really kool
