Yesterday evening, after waiting all day, Google has finally launched the beta version of his web browser : Google Chrome. http://forum.crystalxp.net//style_emoticons/default//party.gif   Besides, on the web everybody was looking forward to it. Only a comic book (38 pages) created by the designer Scott McCloud was available (in fact, initially Google chose to broadcast the announcement of Chrome through the comic book to a limited public but Google has been caught short by blogoscoped who unveiled it Monday morning and the information spread quickly over the net...), to read it, it is here

This looks amazing, I used the beta for a few minutes last night when it came out, and I fell in love instantly! The features are really good, and it looks to be a huge improvement of the browsers out now, and I don't think it's too early to say that. The approach they've taken with sandboxing and tabs-on-top is new, and I think it's something that could catch on, and being Open Source, that shouldn't be a problem.

 

I may have jumped on the Chrome-bandwagon too quickly, but generally I'm not a huge fan of Google. I use their search, but I don't use any of their apps, I've never really been attracted to them - but Chrome is the exception, it converted me in a few minutes, when other Google apps are still lying unused by me, and the best is yet to come!

Have you read the license agreement? No.
Well you shoul take a look at it :wink:

 

It states that anything that moves through the Chrome browser is the property of Google. They can use it for anything they want. So, no thanks. Firefox for me :smile:

Actually they explicitly say:

 

This license is for the sole purpose of enabling Google to display, distribute and promote the services

 

So that's only so they can display the services, distribute and promote them. If they don't have rights to display the stuff you put on their services, like Picasa, then you could sue them just for showing them to you, because you haven't given them the right to.

 

anyway it won't be there for long. And neither will the two slighlty worrying security flaws...
