3 minutes in Google Chrome, Feel already at home
3 minutes before i downloaded Google Chrome and i am already at home. Built on top of webkit and mozilla components this is extremly light and simple. It imported all my bookmarks from Firefox immediately on startup. Since all tabs are individual processes, i opened few tabs and noticed the number of processes running. There is one extra process running in background as 3 tabs = 3 process + 1 more parent process.
Chrome
Infact i am using Google Chrome to write this post. One good thing is the ability to import Firefox bookmarks again and again. Youtube plays well and there is absolutely no issue. I have not been able to crash this browser till now. I changes the default downloads location to Desktop instead of My Documents. Chrome also allows us to restore tabs from previous browsing sessions. Memeory footprint is not high, considering this is a beta release.
Best Feature is the ability to search from within the address bar. Though chrome allows adding a new search provider almost everyone will stick to the default one. Chrome website is offering only the installer which then uses Google Update to download core components.
Good Browser and friendly too.
Only one surprise : Comes with Vista Buttons 
The reason it comes with “Vista Buttons” is because google are using the open sourced WTL written by Microsoft.
// p.s. I came to your blog from the log4j timeAndSize rolling appender blog, I’m the one commented before you. It’s interesting, we’re in the telco business as well, and in this field the requirements are alike all around the world. Perhaps we could share knowledge?
