Google have finally launched their Web browser called 'Chrome', there have been rumours for a long time now about Google's browser, their OS and a so called Google Phone. Not sure, how true the other two are but am sure that Google are coming up in a huge way particularly targeting the likes of Microsoft.
For people who use a lot of internet, the browser is so important. You look for simple things in a browser which can help you in your browsing experience, I am sure a lot of people switched to firefox for its ease and for the Add-ons available for almost anything to do with a browser. Google has certainly lived up to its hype in creating a browser.
The Chrome has a lots of simple yet powerful features.
First of all its open source and it has a embedded JVM.
Other notable features are its entire new look tabs, a feel of a bigger page (no menu bar), theres something what Google calls the Omnibox, which is an Address bar, but does much more than what a FireFox or an IE address bar does, it is like the 'Auto-suggest' feature in Google search, it will literally suggest you a large quantity of things, making your browsing experience even better. As a matter of fact it will suggest you: sites you have not visited yet, sites you have already visited, popular website and more. It also lets you type keywords which will be associated to specific websites speaking about the topic you wish to read.
The Home Page of the Chrome is something which is very useful, well thought of feature, it lists your most frequently visited pages as a 9 screenshot thumbnail, more likely than not you might click one of them, and the best part is all your bookmarks are also part if the home screen, your bookmarks are displayed as a list in the right of the page.
Theres something called the 'Incognito' mode in the Chrome, meaning ultra safe browsing, you no longer have to worry about any cookies, harmful websites, etc. Your computer will be left untouched in this mode.
Also the browser speed seems to be faster than Firefox, downloading is integrated within the browser, which makes browsing really simple.
People used to Google will love the browser for its ease of use, some exciting features and of course the Google factor. In days to come I am sure the Chrome will provide stiff competition to Firefox and IE. I somehow like the Safari as well, but it took sometime to get used to the browser as there are some basic differences which makes you uncomfortable for a while, but I should say Chrome is something anyone can figure out the first time they use it.
People running on windows, do give it a try...Mac users got to wait for some more time
