Google has a new Web Browser to be available for download today. The hype seems to say it is pretty good when reading several sites about it trying to find a download of it. No luck so far but due within the hour is what I read. Noon PST.

Here is a video about it.

I have found right away that it is faster than firefox for a complicated page. One that loads a lot of content. I loaded wave3.com in FireFox and then in Chrome and Chrome was a bit over 5 seconds quicker loading the page. A bit quicker on several other pages I tested as well. Still feeling my way with this but so far so good. At this point, only using a few minutes, I haven't seen enough to take me away from FireFox though.

It is awesome. Speedy little sucker. Yes, a few bugs (nothing that crashes the browser yet) but understandable since it is beta. :thumbup:
