Chrome Web Browser is Fast !!

I got wind of google's coming web browser a couple days before the launch. I downloaded the new open source web browser the day it came out. It's FAST ! I've used FireFox for years, and a friend of mine recently was astounded at how much faster it was when I told him to download it. Google Chrome is faster than FireFox. The page display (rendering engine) is incredibly quick. Pages render much faster than any browser I've ever used.

The interface is very clean with a thin frame and a lot of space devoted to the page you are rendering. The tabs are well thought out. It's a minimalist browser, but I can see it will be awesome, especially since it is open source. Google is a big player on the internet and has certainly upped the ante here for MicroSoft. It also has a feature called Incognito Mode, much like MS's porn mode, which hides personal information and deletes all files used when chrome closes.

The neatest feature I think is the new tab page that shows a panel of thumbnails of the sites you visit most often. The thumbnails are links, I just wish I could find a way of showing more pages in the results.

Searches are incredibly simple as well, just type in the address bar, your query, and voila ! The bar knows its a query not a site, and uses google as the search for results.

Grab a copy and give it a whirl.
