This is a shameless plug, but I just downloaded the BETA version of Google Chrome, Google's new web browser. I haven't worked out all the quirks yet, and you know what? That's okay. There aren't many. As to its superiority over Internet Explorer and Mozilla, I can only say that it's a lot cleaner-looking, and every web page has downloaded MUCH faster than they have on the other browsers while on the same internet connection. Here's a URL to download the BETA:
You know, a few years ago when Microsoft seemed poised to take over the world, it was a scary thing. These days, now that Google is in the same spot, I feel slightly less afraid. A company that is the poster child for taking care of its employees and making life simpler and easier generally has earned my trust, at least for now. More Google products. Less Microsoft all around.
Can't wait for the Mac version. If Mac and Google want to accelerate their steady takeover of technology, they really ought to join forces. And I say that while still fully angry with Mac right now for the hard drive debacle of a few weeks ago. Yikes.
