Google's Open Source Browser: Google Chrome

[mail2and]

I had absolutely no idea about this. Foolish me.

But, I am not surprised. Microsoft has always had their finger on the pulse before anyone else, only never been able to execute efficiently. Online Office Suite was discussed by the Microsoft top order long before Google docs came into existence.

While I'm sure Vista was conceputalised quite early, but I don't think it was as early as the mid 90s. Those were the days of sticks and stones (and Byomkesh Bakshi).

It's too bland. This won't do. After the initial hype is over, people will go back to their previous browsers (they already have), and chrome will be just like any other myriad of browsers out there.

Well, I guess anyone would be wrong in saying that either the Dock or the Widgets/Dashboard/Sidebar were copied from any one particular source. They both seem to be evolution of products developed at different stages by different entities. Here is an interesting article, you might wanna read on Docks & Dashboard.

True. I loved the dock that I tried on an emulated version of AmigaOS. Wish that piece of software was still alive today.

Google backtracks on Chrome license terms

 

[mail2and]

Hehe..

Btw, I tried Chrome. It's fantastic. The first beta looks very promising and I'm sure future releases will only make it even better. Some serious competition for IE.

Did anyone observe processes of chrome. In my system, it is opening separate process for each tab.

That is feature of Chrome. It opens every new tabs in separate processes to make sure that sudden hanging or crashing of any particular tab would not hang the whole browser.

 

[desiibond]

but taking memory consumed into account, for 4-5 tabs, it crossed 100Mb on my PC.

SO, I stick to Opera.

And did anyone ever read the license? lulz

Understood now. Like it after actually going through this browser.

"Copied" from IE 8.
