Google Chrome – Browser of the Future?
Google is very well known in the search industry but over the years, they have grown to become bigger than that. Google is no longer just search. It’s now almost synonymous to innovation. In times when others try their best to keep their house as clean and as presentable as possible, Google somehow decides to just demolish the entire house and build a new and better one.
Such is Google Chrome. Even though it’s built around the Webkit rendering engine – the same rendering engine used by Safari and Konqueror, Google still chose to work outside of the box. As a result, they managed to conjure a browser that’s apparently faster, more secure and hopefully more reliable. I haven’t used the browser myself yet but reading the Google Chrome comic book gave me an idea of how they did things.
Being a programmer myself, I believe that Google Chrome is the browser of the future – assuming of course that they really did all they claimed to have done in the comic book. But why haven’t I tried it yet? Well, sadly because it’s currently only for Windows. I will in time test it on my Windows XP and Windows Vista machine but that’s not in my priority list for now. Too bad Mac and Linux users will have to wait. If you want to give Google Chrome (beta) a try then download it here. With what they said Google Chrome is, I expect you to make a few adjustments with your browsing habits but it’ll be worth it.
