Google Chrome – Google’s Web Browser

Written by Ph@ntoM on September 3, 2008 – 5:27 pm -

Yup! Google beta released their own open-sourced web browser – Google Chrome. So, what’s so unique with it compared to IE, Mozilla Firefox or even Safari and Opera? Well, I would rather say that it is SIMPLICITY! Yes! We knew that Google.com page is simple! right? So, their idea of simplicity was stretched to this new web browser. The UI is clean… yet it is fully functionality. Also, Google Chrome supports tabs. And of course, security is still prioritized. Google Chrome is also focusing on speed and stability whereas, it was benchmarked to be faster than IE 7, Safari and Mozilla Firefox! Wow! It also has some memory efficient mechanism especially for rendering java scripts and multiple websites loaded in tabs… As a result, it improves stability as well. I think Google is really logging a serious challenge to the web browser giants! Let’s see how it goes!

P/S: Do take a look at a comic created by Google to explain in-depth of Google Chrome! More info on Google’s official blog.

UPDATAES: After a night long of testing, I found that this browser initially loads faster… Rendering websites were lightning fast as well, especially opening in multiple tabs. Another thing that catches me was the memory consumption. It eats up relatively lower amount of memory compared to Mozilla Firefox by opening the same amount of pages! OK. Tat’s all for this time. More updates would be coming up after a period of “rigid” testing. :) Check out some detailed testing by Lowyat.net here!
