    • New Browser | Google Chrome

    September 1st, 2008 by Brian King

    In unique Google fashion, the search engine giant has launched its latest product Chrome, with a cartoon that explains the background of the open source browser based on WebKit.

    Unlike other modern web browsers, which can only run one process at a time, Google Chrome gives each tab its own process. This speeds up overall performance and saves the entire browser from crashing when one tab causes problems.

    The multi-process design requires more memory allocation up front but less memory over time as users tend to multitask. It also prevents your computer from slowing down after you browse for an extended period of time and open/close lots of tabs.

    I wont bore you with the technical stuff which is thoroughly explained in 38 comic pages drawn by Scott McCloud, creator of the classic Understanding Comics.

    We downloaded Google Chrome, it pretty much installed itself with only a few questions, and we were surfing the web. As with anything new it takes a little while for your eyes to get used to the new tabs and features, but everything including page loading times are noticably quicker than its Internet Explorer and Firefox counterparts.

    Understanding Chrome is a Beta version, its only early days but one does get the feeling we have just witnessed the beginning of the end..
