looks like google`s much rumoured browser may not be vapourware
http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2008/09/fresh-take-on-browser.html
looks good on "paper", at least if the claim that if one tab crashes, it only crashes that tab, and not whole browser that`s a big plus.
Only on Windows for time being, Linux and Mac ones in dev still.
I guess it will need adblockplus to take off ;)
should be out today, story on BBC

It looks like IE7 and Opera had a baby.
I love the Awesome Bar in Firefox, so I like the similar address bar in this, but I don`t like how it`s much more faffing about to change search engines than on either Firefox or Opera. I`ll keep it installed, but I`ll be sticking with Firefox as my default browser.

Not tried at home (use Linux), just tried on my XP SP3 laptop at work, doens`t work. uninstalled installed afew times, keep getting
failed to initialise properly error.
looks like it could be Symantic Endpoint related
Seen a few post on various places ppl having problems straight after install, not a good start, and no adblock plus anyway ;)
Google first had your search history, then your email, then your documents online, now your whole browsing history...

We`re on a baby hunt and don`t think
we don`t know how to weeeeeed `em out.
Seems pretty good. Ive been using safari and a mac for ages, so I was used to some of the design methods.
I can see it being a bit jarring if you are a maximised window, toolbar kind of person.
I had a quick check to see if it would work with our website and a few of our internal applications. It does, so happy days there. Its also very fast.
It seems ok. i think once the nerds start getting the widgets out it will certainly be a worthy alternative to FF and will probably start eating into its market share.
And its another browser that this forums BB code doesnt work on ;)
What im listening to (if youre interested)
