Google’s new web browser is coming soon!

by Michael Aulia on 2 September, 2008 in Other Tech News

Google Chrome BrowserWhat? Google is making a web browser of its own? Yes, you heard that right. It is named “Google Chrome” and it’s coming sooner than expected. In fact, rumor says that it’s coming to your “door” tomorrow (Tuesday, 2nd September,  U.S time)

I know that we’ve already got so many web browsers in front of us that it’s no longer funny. However, every invention of Google is worth having a look (at least in my opinion). I love Google and I always love their product inventions.

Google Chrome (by reading all if its features) feels like the best in every browser combined into one. Webkit rendering engine (the one that is used by Safari), less memory usage, slim, advanced keywords URL completion (Firefox 3), speed dials (Opera), privacy mode (IE 8), etc.

I’m not gonna talk too much on this post because if everything goes smoothly on Google’s department, this browser should be launched tomorrow (tagged Beta, of course). So I’ll write up a longer post on my impression after Google Chrome Beta is officially launched.

To find out more on the features and screenshots, read more on Blogscoped’s blog.

Don’t miss out the comic created by Google about the browser’s features too! It’s a really fun comic to read!
You can read/download the PDF from Google’s blog here or you can read it online (images) on Blogscoped.

Hi Michael
It will be very interesting to see just what google has up their sleeve with this move.We all know google does nothing that does not put them in front of the line.

Personally, I don’t know why Google would want to make its own browser, considering the cash the company gives to Mozilla every year. It doesn’t make sense (well, for me) to compete with someone you are trying to help.

Anything Google does, has to be good. Ever since i started using gmail, i have become a convert; google adds so much value to the emailing experience that every other email service seems lacking somehow. So it will be interesting to see their browser as well.

Goodness. Another browser? I can’t deal with all this. First it was IE and Netscape. Then IE and FF. Now IE, FF, and Opera. And now we have to add Google? Too much, I say!

Though it does look pretty slick.

Well it’s not out yet.. should be in a few hours…

And Maria, if you read the comic book, you’ll find that this browser is different! (at least if they can deliver what they say in the pictures)

It’s like the best out of the best – or is it only a hype? lol

More or less, google was raised by or along with firefox. i don’t understand why mr.G should introduce a new browser where firefox fully support them. domination?!!!!

Can’t open a single page :D
But I really like the design and the bookmark placement, much easier to get to my fav sites
