So, when google chrome first came out I was like who needs another browser. :dizzy:
But I was just listening to a show on the possible development of chrome into an OS which peaked my curiosity. In looking at google chrome they have actually made some nice architectural design choices if you used tabbed browsing a lot. They have implemented each tab as a separate process. What this does is keep an errant link from bringing down your browser. Say you have several tabs open and you click on a new link and it is a slow website and your browser gets locked up waiting for the page to load. By implementing each tab as a separate process this doesn't happen you can keep active in all you other tabs until that errant website loads or you can just close the tab without having to wait for it to load.
The only bad thing so far is that I started using google bookmarks to be able to manage my bookmarks across computers and it doesn't integrate google bookmarks. :crazy:
and so far only for windows, so you can only load on your windows computers.
