Google has announced that the launch of their new web browser is just around the corner! Google Chrome will be released later today in over 100 countries, according to Google’s Official Blog. This new web browser is said to be fast and handles today’s web applications much better.
The Google Chrome browser will have a homepage of nine shortcut thumbnails with your most recent search history and tabs. The tabs themselves are multi-threaded with no communication or interference from other tabs or other applications. Each application opens in it’s own window.
Another great feature will be obvious when you open a new tab. You no longer get a blank tab. Google Chrome will automatically open their dynamically created page which includes your most visited pages, a list of tabs you have recently closed and access to your own bookmarks. I am excited about this time saving feature the most.
Only time will tell if Google Chrome will change the way we browse the web. But for me, the idea of a more secure operation with faster browsing and fewer crashes is too good to pass up.
I’m probably going to have to give this a try. Sounds like it’s going to be quite helpful, especially for researching materials.
I agree with you Chris. I’ll give it a try too. We’ll never know and we can never compare it to anything else if we haven’t tried it ourselves.
It ready for download! http://www.google.com/chrome/ I’m going to install mine now. I also forgot to mention, in this article, that it is only available for Windows Vista and XP right now.
Hi. I have tried this one and it’s quite fast than other browsers do. Still exploring more of its features.
Hi Amanda,
Thanks for the review. I have installed and used Chrome today. It is fast and I like the new tab feature and browsing history.

Hi. I also have tried Google Chrome and the speed is noticeably faster than other browsers can. I’m just wondering about the thumbnails if there’s any way I can set default websites to show up in the thumbnails. I have not read all the specifications of this website. Still have to explore more.
I will wait and see… I am using a computer with Linux operation system. I will ask my brother for advice.
Mary Grace, I’m with you on this one. I too wish that the thumbnails could be set to specific favorite sites. From what I’ve read, I don’t think that’s possible…..yet. Otherwise, I do like it. It’s fast and it makes my surfing easier.
