Google Chrome

[Kelsay, Brian - Kansas City, MO]

Well, I read the whole comic book about all the great features and I
focused on the process separation and memory mgmt and tried to follow
the stuff about the new VM.   It all sounds good, sounds like the way
I'd do a browser if I knew how to do such a thing, but I have to say
that I thought that Firefox was working on doing these things in v. 2
and 3.   You know, work to crash less and fix memory leaks.   Anyway,
this explains why Firefox still crashes and takes everything with it.
Google Chrome should not let one tab w/ a problem bring the whole
browser crashing down.

While that was interesting, most of the points were moot.  Yes, almost
everything in chrome is something someone else has already came up with.
But chrome took all the good points from all these other browsers and
created a browser that implements them all well.

And this site seems to imply that chrome should be running far more
resource-dependant than the other browsers out there - I have been
running it since it's release yesterday, and I am very impressed.  It
outperforms IE7 in all aspects...and IE7 outperforms firefox 3 in all
aspects (I was shocked too when I realized it).  Of course, this is all
on my computer at work, because I run only linux at home ;)

Overall, chrome is an amazing browser with a lot of very
well-implemented ideas.  The ideas themselves are not revolutionary, but
the implementation is...just like what gmail did to email, chrome is
doing to browsers.

My 2 cents :)

decided what
