Google Chrome - The Future Of Browsing or is it?

It was the logical next step in assuring Google’s dominance of the internet. Google has launched its Chrome web browser, and it delivers. The interface flows smoothly and the pages load quickly. It takes the best from both Firefox and IE and meshes them into a seamless interface that will cater to everyone. The lightweight browser lets you preview pages, get search suggestions when you enter an address, and create shortcuts to your favorite web applications. It’s amazing to see how well it works for a beta version. It’s evident that Google has been waiting to launch this product until it was ready, and since Microsoft recently launched a new version of Internet Explorer, the time is just right. Like everything Google does, the browser is simple and minimalistic. While this might not appeal to the heavy web user, average users will think highly of this. You can preview the most visited websites in thumbnail format, allowing for quick and easy access.

Google and Mozilla do work closely together, hence why the splash screen on Mozilla is a Google search (firefox version). I have used chrome. I don’t think much of it but the task manager and applications shortcuts are very cool. Also the speed is fantastic. Although each tab is a new instance of the browser. I had to install it to see the what and hows now personally I wont be using it as I want Google to have more traffic data than they do already.

“Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier.”

I am no lawyer but when you talk like that then it scares me. Google already collects way too much information about and our surfing habits this only adds to it.
