Just released: Google’s new webbrowser, Google Chrome.  I installed it 6 minutes after it went live, in fact, I am blogging from it right now.  You can learn more about it in comic form, arguably the best way to learn anything.  (Remind me to tell you about the Cartoon History of the Universe sometime…fantastic!)

So far so good.  Fonts and things are kind of looking funny.  It will take some getting used to with the tabs on the top, but I think it makes sense.  It imported everything from IE seemlessly.  There are a lot of speed and security enhancements, which are hard to quantify.  Best feature so far is the “new tab” page.  Rather than making a blank page when you go to a new tab, it displays a page that is customized to your personal browsing history.  Your most visited pages are there with one click access.  And somehow that new tab seems to load faster than the blank page in IE!

So, first impression is good.  It seems faster than IE and Firefox, but maybe that’s because I haven’t loaded it down with plugins, etc. yet.
